A man has been rushed to the hospital with serious injuries following a collision last night on the A27 eastbound.

Police and paramedics responded to the scene on the A27 eastbound last night (May 10), and emergency services remained at the scene throughout the early hours of today as they investigated the incident.

According to a spokesperson from Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary, officers were called to the collision involving a car and a pedestrian just after 11 p.m. “The pedestrian, a man in his 30s, has suffered serious injuries and has been taken to the hospital,” he added.

His family has been informed. The road remains closed.”

Several parts of the road network were closed while the investigation took place. A major stretch of the A27 and M27 eastbound was closed for a time but has now been reopened.

National Highways reports their workers cleared the area after police left the scene. Disruption is expected throughout the morning, with motorists running into delays.

This incident is now clear, and the #A27 in #Hampshire is now OPEN eastbound between the #M27 J12 / #M275 near #Portsmouth and the #A2030 near #Farlington. There are still delays of over 25 minutes in the area but this should now start to ease.”

The incident serves as a reminder for motorists to remain vigilant and adhere to safety regulations while on the road, particularly during times of heightened traffic.
