A man in his 60s, who was riding a motorbike, was left in a serious condition following a collision with a car in Stane Street, Chichester, on Tuesday September 23 at around 8.15am, as reported.

Police previously said emergency services responded to the collision which occurred near to New Road. “The motorcyclist, a 60-year-old man from Chichester, sustained serious injuries and was airlifted to hospital where he remains,” police said.

“Stane Street was closed while services worked at the scene and debris was cleared. It has since reopened, and an investigation to establish the circumstances is underway.”

Now around three months on police have renewed their appeal as the man remains in hospital. “Officers are conducting an ongoing investigation and would like to speak to the drivers of three vehicles which are believed to have been in the area at the time of the collision,” police said.

“One vehicle has been described as a black Range Rover or similar with a pattern across the left hand side of the vehicle. This car is believed to have turned right into Stane Street from the southbound A285. The other two vehicles are believed to have turned left into Stane street from the northbound A285.

“Anyone who witnessed the incident or who has relevant information such as CCTV or dashcam footage is urged to come forward.”

Witnesses, or anyone with dashcam footage is asked to contact police online, or by calling 101 quoting reference 233 of 23/09.
