A cyclist who died in a collision with a car in South Woodham Ferrers has been identified.
Timothy Jennings, 52, was pronounced dead after an incident involving a green Citroen Saxo as he rode round the roundabout junction of Burnham Road, Ferrers Road and Willow Grove just after 4am yesterday.
Mr Jennings, from Burnham Road in Battlesbridge, had been travelling towards Shaw Farm.
PC Jenny Pirie, said: "We're keen to hear from anyone who not only saw the actual crash, but those who may have seen this cyclist riding along this route on previous days."
A man was arrested at the scene on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and later released on police bail until Thursday (September 12), pending further enquiries.
A section of the road was closed for seven hours while forensic collision investigators tried to establish the cause of the crash and while the vehicle and cycle were recovered.
