A Mount Maunganui road has reopened after being blocked by a trailer that disconnected from a truck this afternoon.
A police spokeswoman said they were called to a two vehicle crash near the intersection of Aerodrome Rd and Aviation Ave about 12.47pm.
One of the vehicles was a tanker type truck and the trailer was partially blocking one of the lanes, she said.
No one was injured.
A crane had been called in to move the trailer and motorists could expect delays, the spokeswoman said.
A Bay of Plenty Times reporter at the scene said it appeared to be a bitumen truck from a roading company. A small crane and a forklift were helping to shift the tanker from the road.
A witness said the trailer disconnected from the truck and slid down the road.
