The A21 has been shut in both directions after an accident.

Police and ambulance services are at the scene between Lamberhurst, near Tunbridge Wells, and Flimwell in East Sussex.

Injuries have been reported following the incident, which involved a car and a motorbike.

A police spokesperson said: "Police were called at 6.03pm yesterday to a collision between a car and a motorcyclist on the A21 near Kilndown Road, Flimwell.

"Officers and Secamb attended and the motorcyclist was taken to hospital."

This is the second accident involving a motorcyclist on the road in just three days, after a biker was killed further south on Sunday.

The victim, a 48-year-old woman from Kent, died at the scene after a collision with a car near Robertsbridge.

The car driver, a 63-year-old man from that village, was arrested on suspicion of causing death by careless driving.
