Gwent Police is appealing for witnesses following a road traffic collision that occurred yesterday, Sunday 3rd July, between two pedal cycles on the A48 at Castleton near to the old Wyevale Garden Centre site.
At approximately 3pm the two pedal cyclists were travelling together along the A48 in the direction of Cardiff when they collided. The collision caused one of the cyclists, a 54 year old man from Wenvoe, to fall off his bike. He was conveyed to the University of Wales Hospital with serious head injuries. He currently remains there in a serious but stable condition.
The other cyclist, a 53 year old man from St Mellons, was uninjured. Officers are particularly interested in speaking to a motorist driving a red car who stopped at the scene of the collision to help, and also a cyclist who was riding in the opposite direction on the A48, towards Newport, at the same time.
Anyone who thinks they may have information relating to this incident is asked to contact Gwent Police on 101.
