A 20-YEAR-OLD man is in a critical condition in the Royal Gwent Hospital after being hit by a car on the M48 Westbound last night.
The pedestrian, from Rogiet, sustained serious injuries following the collision with a black Ford Focus at around 11.15pm.
The westbound carriageway of the M48 was closed for around five hours while officers carried out investigations at the scene.
A Gwent Police spokeswoman says no arrests have been made.
The police are appealing for members of the public who may have been in the Rogiet area at the time to call 101 quoting log number 551 of 11/5/16.
