The smash happened just after 4.10pm at the roundabout where Fawcett Road meets Goldsmith Avenue. Police say the cyclist was hit as they entered the roundabout by a vehicle.
Emergency services rushed to the scene. Paramedics fought to save the cyclist’s life before airlifting them to Southampton’s regional trauma centre with suspected life-changing injuries.
