A head-on crash involving a motorcycle and a car on a main road left a person needing urgent treatment at a major trauma centre.

The London Ambulance Service (LAS) was called at 12.05pm yesterday (April 16) to North Street, Romford, to reports of a collision and urgently sent personnel.

An advanced paramedic, ambulance crews and an incident response officer were dispatched.

"Our first paramedic was on the scene in under a minute," an LAS spokesperson said.
