Paramedics were called out at 10.45am to the incident which happened on Thorpe Esplanade at the junction with Thorpe Hall Avenue.
The incident happened after a bus and cyclist collided.
Treatment was given to the male bike rider at the scene with a police spokeswoman saying his injuries are thought "not to be serious".
