A truck crash that closed part of the Te Puke Highway this morning has been cleared.

A police spokeswoman said they were called to the scene near Collins Lane about 7.20am where a truck had crashed into the barrier on the bridge.

The road was completely blocked and diversions were in place at Te Puke Quarry Rd and Manoeka Rd, she said.

The truck appeared to be stuck and heavy haulage had been called in to free it, the spokeswoman said.

There were no injuries.
