Emergency services were called to the Pennyquick and Whiteway Road at approximately 2.20am on Sunday following the crash, involving a purple Citroen C4.

Anthony Rogers, from Bath, was the sole occupant and died at the scene.

His family have released a statement paying tribute to the 45-year-old.

They said: “Ant was a larger-than-life character and a free spirit who lit up every room and lived life to the full.

“He was a much-loved son, father, brother, uncle, friend and partner. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him.”

A specially-trained officer continues to provide support to the family.

Motorists who were driving in the area and may have relevant dashcam footage, or witnesses who have not yet spoken to officers, are asked to contact police online or call 101 and give reference number 5224224148.
