At least three ambulances, two firetrucks and an air ambulance responded to a crash involving a motorcycle Saturday afternoon.

The crash happened sometime around 4:45 p.m. on Highway 1 westbound just east of the Clearbrook Road exit, and police say it appears the crash resulted when a tire blew on the motorcycle.

At 8 p.m. only one lane of the highway remained open westbound at Clearbrook.

Eastbound traffic did not appear to be affected.

The male rider was taken to hospital, where he remains in serious condition.
