TWO motorcyclists had to be taken to hospital following a crash which shut down a north Suffolk road for almost three hours.

The accident involved a motorbike carrying two men and a Land Rover Freelander on the B1127 at Reydon.

Police shut off the road on Saturday afternoon from 4.15pm until 7pm after fuel had leaked over the surface and debris scattered.

An East of England Ambulance spokesperson said the men, who were riding a 600cc Triumph registered in Kessingland, both suffered leg injuries and were taken to the James Paget Hospital.

Police believed at least one of the riders had suffered a broken leg in the collision.
