One person was transported to Auckland Hospital via helicopter.

A section of State Highway 15A has re-opened after a serious two-vehicle crash between Ruakaka and Marsden Point at 7.45am.

Fire and emergency services, police, a Serious Crash Unit and an ambulance attended the scene near the big tomato road sign this morning.

One person was flown to Auckland Hospital in serious condition just before 9am; a second person was transported to Whangārei Hospital with moderate injuries.

The SH 15A section between Salle Rd and McCathie Rd remained closed until mid-morning as police conducted a crash investigation.

A detour via Marsden Point Rd was in place and all logging trucks had been diverted through Ruakaka.
