Police advise a section of State Highway Two between Napier and Wairoa will be closed from 10am to midday following a truck accident.
A truck went off the road shortly after 4pm yesterday about half way between Putorino and Kotemaori.
The road is being closed to allow for cranes to access the sight and remove the truck and its cargo.
Motorists are advised to avoid the area if possible as there will be lengthy delays.
