The person killed in yesterday's fiery truck crash on State Highway 1 was an employee of Winstone Aggregates.
On Friday morning both lanes of Auckland's SH1 on the Bombay Hills were closed after a truck travelling southbound reportedly rolled and caught fire near the Beaver Rd off-ramp.
A spokesperson from Fletcher Buildings said police told them yesterday that one of their Winstone Aggregates colleagues had died in the single-vehicle crash.
"The details are still being established and we are awaiting further information from police," they said.
They said their first priority was to support the driver's family.
