A road was closed to traffic this evening following a serious crash. Emergency services were called to the junction of Vandries Street and Waterloo<\/a> Road in Vauxhall shortly after 7pm on Wednesday, May 28.<\/p>\n The crash involved a Volkswagen ID3 and an AJS Highway Star motorbike, police said. The driver stopped at the scene and is assisting police with enquiries.<\/p>\n A cordon was put in place on a large section of the road and a number of side roads, including Vulcan Street and Porter Street, were closed at the junction of Waterloo Road.<\/p>\n Photos taken from the scene show a significant emergency services response including fire engines, paramedics and police. An air ambulance later landed in nearby Costco car park to provide medical support, however this departed at around 7.50pm.<\/p>\n A witness at the scene told how she was walking to the car when she heard “a bang and then scraping”. She told the ECHO<\/a>: “It was an awful sound. This is a terrible junction. Cars park all the way to the edge of the road and it’s really difficult to see what’s coming.”<\/p>\n A white screen was put in place inside the cordon, and a silver car with its hazard lights flashing was clearly visible. Both its bonnet and boot were open.<\/p>\n A spokesperson for Merseyside Police said: “We are this evening, Wednesday 28 May, dealing with a road traffic collision at the junction of Vandries Street and Waterloo Road in Liverpool.<\/p>\n “We were contacted at just after 7pm following reports a Volkswagen ID3 had been in collision with an AJS Highway Star motorbike.
