Police are investigating a road incident after the body of a motorcyclist was found on Burnley Road.

Officers were called to reports of a man’s body on the Hebden Bridge-Mytholmroyd boundary at 11.30am yesterday.

Initial investigations suggested that a crash had taken place earlier during the early hours of Thursday morning.

It is understood that the man was in his 20s and local to the area.

Police said his relatives had been informed.

Road closures were in place on the A646 Burnley Road between Station Road at Hebden Bridge and New Road at Mytholmroyd.

The route reopened at around 4.40pm.

The 590 and 592 buses from Todmorden terminated at Hebden Bridge, while services to Todmorden terminated at Calder Valley High School following the road closures.

Drivers were asked to avoid the area if possible.

Anyone with information has been asked to call the police on 101.
