The scene on Te Ngae Rd.

A bus has gone off the road and crashed through a fence in Te Ngae this morning.

The crash happened on the corner of Te Ngae Rd and Tennyson Drive just after 7am, a police spokeswoman said.

A Rotorua Daily Post reporter at the scene said it appeared a house bus had gone through the fence.

Traffic is flowing.

A constable on the scene said a tow truck was on the way to wedge the bus out and remove it.

Meanwhile just 100m down the road, a triple nose-to-tail crash had three drivers standing in the cold.

Each car had substantial damage and all three drivers were uninjured and swapping details.
