Calls for safer roads around the city, requiring "urgent attention", have re-surfaced after another crash.

The calls come after part of Dereham Road in Norwich was closed after a crash involving a bus and a female cyclist on September 13, shortly after 8.25am.

On August 20, another incident occurred as police were called to Newmarket Road after a cyclist was hit by a red Renault Laguna and Jane Blackwell, who was aged in her 60s, died at the scene.

Peter Silburn, chairman for Norwich Cycling Campaign, said: "We are shocked to hear of another person injured while cycling on the city’s roads.

"Our politicians who have the power to do something about this danger, need to do much more to ensure everyone is safe on our roads, no matter how they choose to get about.

Dereham Road was closed at the junction of Grapes Hill, near the Tesco Express shop.

Police officers and the East of England Ambulance Service were at the scene.

The cyclist, a woman in her 30s, was taken to the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital with serious injuries but not life-threatening injuries.

"That means providing segregated, protected bike lanes to prevent crashes between those on foot, those who choose to get around by bike and those people who make longer, essential journeys by car.

"This particular stretch of Dereham Road does not have a good safety record and has no safe provision for those on bikes.

"It needs urgent attention.
