Road users are experiencing long delays on State Highway 2 between Waihī and Ōmokoroa.

A SunLive reader has reported that a logging truck has broken down on SH2, just past the Morton Road roundabout.

“It is hard for cars to get around.”

A police spokesperson said emergency services also responded to a two-vehicle crash on SH2, near Apata Station Road, just after 12pm

They said there were no injuries and were working to remove the vehicles from the scene.

NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi said there was also a large volume of traffic travelling today while work is underway to move 1800 diameter pipes across the road for the Apata Road roundabout construction, said NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi.

"Stop/go traffic management has been in place with lane shifts and a reduced speed limit, but the work team has now opened 2 lanes to get traffic flowing better.

"Road users should consider delaying their journeys if possible or expect delays as it will take time for the tailbacks to clear.

"There won’t be any more stop/go required for this work.

"NZTA thanks road users for their patience."
