A motorbike rider has been taken to hospital in a critical condition following a collision near the corner of Glendon and Haly streets on Thursday afternoon.<\/p>\n

Officer-in-charge of Kingaroy Police, Senior Sergeant Dave Tierney, said it appeared the motorcycle was travelling in Haly Street when it and a ute collided.<\/p>\n

Ambulance paramedics worked at the scene to stabilise the badly injured male rider before transporting him to Kingaroy Hospital.<\/p>\n

The crash occurred about 2:00pm.<\/p>\n

The driver of the Ford Falcon trayback ute is not believed to have been injured in the collision.<\/p>\n

The Honda VT750 motorcycle ended up near the Glendon Street crossing, leaking oil on to the roadway.<\/p>\n

Police diverted traffic in Haly and Glendon streets while emergency services were at the scene.<\/p>\n

UPDATE:\u00a0 The rider was later airlifted by RACQ LifeFlight helicopter to PA Hospital in a critical condition.<\/strong><\/p>\n
