Crash on SH2 near Omokoroa

A crash on the Waipapa River Bridge at the bottom of the flying mile closed a section of State Highway 2 for three hours during peak hour this morning.

The crash between a car and a truck trailer just before 6.30am closed the section of highway just north of Omokoroa until 9.45am today.

There were no injuries in the crash.


The silver car was travelling south on State Highway Two near Omokoroa when it was involved in a crash with a truck trailer.

The car is believed to have been stopped at the bridge and was clipped by the trailer of a truck that had slowed to pass.

Traffic was diverted by Esdaile Road, the Old Highway and Youngson Road.

know if the bridge had anything to do with it but just about all of those bridges to Katikati are far to narrow mainly the one just before Kati near fortalisa, i will not be on that brdge at the same time as another truck and will slow to make sure
