State Highway 1 will be closed later this morning at Bulli Point, near Taupo, following a truck crash.
The truck and trailer unit rolled in the crash around 4.30am.
'Nobody was injured,” says a statement from police.
'Traffic control is currently in place as the road is partially blocked.”
However, from 11:30am the road will be fully closed in order to remove the truck from the scene.
'It is expected this process could take some time and the road could be closed until around 6pm.
'Detours will be put in place and motorists can check the NZTA website for details. Police thank motorists in advance for their patience.”

This is the most DANGEROUS ROAD,for as long as last 50 years trucks ,cars have all gone over there,it will not be the last,the cost of all this carnage has probably cost hundres of millions of $$$$$,and there was talk of the ARMY 50yrs ago to put a road up and over the hill before the twisty bits,starts by the big gum trees and sraight over and comes out by caravan park,its still not done,(but they have got (HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS TO GIVE TO THOSE OTHER PEOPLE)that need their SQEACKY WHEELS GREASED,so it goes on,my thoughts only,that route is the main highway,and costs hundreds of thousands to have that closed throughout the yrs,in lost production.Sunlive is No1,Thankyou 10-4 out.
