Burnham-On-Sea police and ambulance crews rushed to the Edithmead roundabout besides the M5 motorway on Tuesday evening (August 19th) after a rush-hour accident.
One person, who eyewitnesses told Burnham-On-Sea.com was a passing cyclist, was taken to Weston General Hospital after a collision with a vehicle.
Police officers diverted traffic around the scene, and the roundabout was partially blocked, as pictured here, for around 20 minutes.
A long tailback of traffic stretched back onto the M5’s northbound carriageway at junction 22.
