Firefighters have had to cut a woman free from a campervan after a three-car pile-up in the Bay of Plenty.

Fire and Emergency shift manager Scott Osmond said the crash occurred on the main road on the south side of Te Puke about 9.45am.

A police spokeswoman said the crash involved a campervan, car and a truck.

The highway was reduced to one lane while emergency services extracted the woman.

Osmond said there was at least one other person injured as well as the trapped woman.
