Police are appealing for information after a 51-year-old female cyclist was injured in a crash on Braid Road  around 11.20am yesterday morning.

She was taken to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary for treatment. Her injuries are described as being serious but non-life threatening.

The cyclist is not believed to have been struck by any other vehicles. Enquiries are ongoing to establish what caused her to come off her grey Apollo bicycle.

Inspector Roger Park of Edinburgh Royal Infirmary said: “We are particularly keen to speak to a man who came to the cyclist’s aid but then left without leaving his name or contact details.

“If that was you or if anyone else has any information about the incident then please call 101, quoting incident 1597 of 19 July, 2020.”
