A truck crash has closed State Highway 1 just south of Taihape

A truck crashed just south of Taihape in the early hours of Saturday morning.

The crash happened at approximately 2:30am at the intersection of Gorge Road and State Highway 1, and the truck ended up on its side.

State Highway 1 just south of Taihape will be closed for most of Saturday morning while the crash site is cleared.

No one was injured in the crash.

Police said a crane was being brought in to remove the truck and that meant the road could be closed for up to five hours.
