    Police are appealing for witnesses following a fatal road traffic collision on the Cardigan bypass.

    Officers were called just after 1.05pm on Saturday 17 January to reports of a collision on the A487 northbound, near the junction with Caemorgan Road.

    The incident involved a Yamaha YZF R7 motorbike and a Volkswagen Transporter van.

    The rider of the motorbike was airlifted to hospital, where he later died from his injuries. No other injuries were reported.

    Officers from Cardigan, Crymych and Newcastle Emlyn Police are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the collision and are urging anyone who may have seen what happened to come forward.

    They are particularly keen to hear from drivers who were travelling along this stretch of the A487 at the time, or anyone who may have dashcam footage of the vehicles involved.

    Anyone with information is asked to contact police quoting reference DP-20260117-139.

    Reports can be made online, by emailing [email protected], or by calling 101.
