Part of a Battersea road was closed this morning after a motorcyclist came off his bike this morning.

Metropolitan Police were called to Battersea Park Road by the London Ambulance Service at 8.41am on Tuesday, May 10 after reports of a crash between a motorcyclist and a pedestrian. 

The motorcyclist and the pedestrian were taken to hospital in south London with non life-threatening or life-changing injuries.

Battersea Park Road was completely blocked westbound near Bridge Road after the accident just after 8am.
