Haverhill, NH (May 27, 2026) – A bicyclist was injured Wednesday morning after a vehicle and bicycle were involved in a crash in North Haverhill.
The accident was reported at about 8:08 a.m. near 1459 Dartmouth College Highway. Initial information said air medical support was requested after the vehicle struck the bicyclist.
The roadway was expected to remain closed for an extended period while emergency units worked at the location. A reconstruction team was also requested after the wreck.
Authorities continue to investigate the cause of the crash. We hope the injured bicyclist receives the care and support needed during recovery.
Why Bicycle Accidents May Require Air Medical Support
Bicycle accidents can cause serious injuries because riders have little protection when they are hit by a vehicle or thrown to the ground. A rider may suffer head, neck, back, chest, arm, or leg trauma. Air medical support may be requested when injuries appear serious or when faster transport to advanced care is necessary.
Road closures after a bicycle-related roadway emergency can also help crews work safely. Investigators may need time to document vehicle position, bicycle damage, road markings, debris, and sight lines. Reconstruction teams often review speed, lane placement, visibility, and the point of contact. These details can help explain how the crash happened and why the bicyclist needed urgent care.
