The male motorcyclist was unconscious when taken to Changi General Hospital, where he subsequently died, according to the police and Singapore Civil Defence Force.

The lorry driver, a 41-year-old man, was arrested for driving without due care or reasonable consideration.

Police investigations are ongoing.
