Please note - Crash is at Kaiwaka not Kawakawa as previously released
Two patients involved in the crash north of Kaiwaka have been removed from their vehicles by emergency services. One pregnant woman who is in a serious condition has been airlifted to Whangarei Hospital and a man, also in a serious condition, has been taken to hospital by ambulance.
There is only one lane still open north-bound and the Serious Crash Unit are on the scene. They are currently cleaning up the debris and waiting for tow-trucks to arrive to move the damaged vehicles.
Motorists are asked to be careful and expect delays while the area is still cordoned. ENDS
