A man remains in a serious condition in Hawke's Bay Hospital after a two-car crash that ended with a car on a grassy bank on State Highway 2 near Te Hauke on Sunday.

A Hawke's Bay DHB spokeswoman said a man in his 40s arrived in a critical condition on Sunday but was now in a serious condition.

A second person injured in the crash, a man in his 70s, had been discharged.

Emergency services were called to the two-car crash about 1.15pm and the northbound lane of SH2 was temporarily blocked, a police spokesperson confirmed.

Two people were taken to Hawke's Bay Hospital by St John Ambulance.
