The cyclist – a man – is though to have serious injuries.
Gwent Police closed the A4810 in both directions "while officers investigate the circumstances surrounding the collision".

Anyone who may have dashcam footage of travelling along the A4810 around the time of the incident would be particularly helpful to enquiries, the police added.
