Waikato police want to hear from anyone who picked a man up near the scene of a crash that left a person in a critical condition.

The two-vehicle crash happened around 4.30pm yesterday, at the intersection of State Highway 28 and Smith Road in Te Poi, near Matamata.

In a 7.30pm statement, police said: "As part of ongoing inquiries, police would like to speak with anyone who picked up a man in their car from near the crash scene."

If you can help, please call police on 105 and quote event number P047201874.

There were cordons in place around the crash scene and motorists were asked to avoid the area, however, according to the NZTA website this morning the road has since been reopened.
