Two dead in SH1 crash north of Rangitata
Two people are dead following a two-vehicle crash north of Rangitata between Ashburton and Timaru. Police say State Highway 1 is closed at the intersection of Ealing Rd, just north of the Rangitata Bridge.
A police communications team member said two vehicles were involved and the crash is reported to have occurred about 1.40pm.
The Serious Crash Unit will be attending and diversions are in place at Delmaine Rd, Hinds to the north of the crash scene and at State Highway 79 to the south.
Northbound traffic should turn onto SH79 at Rangitata, on to Route 72 at Geraldine Arundel Road and right onto Hinds Arundel Rd.
Motorists are asked to avoid the area if possible and expect delays, and to follow the directions of emergency services onsite. This detour is not suitable from HPMV's but is suitable for 50Max traffic.
