An 82-year-old Mount Maunganui man has died after being involved in a crash on State Highway 29A yesterday, police say.

The Western Bay's acting head of road policing Sergeant Wayne Hunter said the man had suffered a medical event that led to the crash.

He understood the man died in Tauranga Hospital last night.

Police would not be investigating the crash further, Hunter said.
