A road that was closed this morning after a fatal crash has now re-opened.
The A354 was closed for around eight hours from Cashmoor and the Handley Cross Roundabout.
This is because of a crash at around 6am this morning involving a Kawasaki motorcycle. The rider - a man in his 60s from Dorchester - was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police say his family has been informed.

The road was closed so that emergency services could respond to the incident and for a detailed examination of the scene.
The road reportedly re-opened at around 2.30pm.
