Motorcyclist seriously injured

A 60-year-old motorcyclist is in a critical condition after being involved in a three-vehicle accident.

He was injured after two vans collided on the Edinburgh City bypass on Wednesday at about 3.50pm.

A Ford Transit and a Volkswagen Caddy collided between the Straiton and Lothianburn junctions, forcing the Caddy into the central reservation before it then hit a Honda motorcycle.

The 29-year-old male driver of the Transit was unhurt, while the 42-year-old man who was driving the Caddy suffered slight injuries.

The motorcyclist suffered serious injuries and was taken to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary for treatment.

The road was closed for six-anda-half hours while police examined the scene.

Police are appealing for witnesses to the crash. Dundonians have known it for years, Kevin Bridges has called it his favourite and now students across the country have confirmed Dundee’s 24-hour bakery is one of the best places in the UK to buy food after a night out.

For more than a decade Clark’s 24-hour bakery has been providing hangover-staving, hunger-abating treats for students, party-goers and shift workers at all times of the day.

A student survey has now named the West End favourite as the best place to get “drunk food” in Scotland and sixth best in the UK.

The website mystudenthalls.com said it established its rankings by awarding points based on three main criteria.

The first involved the proximity to the area’suniversitycampusorstudentunion.
