A motorcyclist was seriously injured in a crash Monday morning near Red Road (Northwest 57th Avenue) and Miami Lakes Drive in Northwest Miami-Dade, WSVN reported.

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue paramedics airlifted the rider to Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital, where the patient is listed in critical condition, according to WSVN.

The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene just before 5:50 a.m., and deputies diverted southbound traffic westbound onto Miami Lakes Drive during their investigation, WSVN said.

The crash caused traffic delays on the Palmetto Expressway and led officials to advise drivers to avoid the area and seek alternate routes, WSVN added.

WPLG Local 10 also reported on the incident, confirming the motorcyclist was injured in the crash in Miami Lakes.
