Two people have escaped serious injury following a two-car crash on the Hawke’s Bay Expressway in Napier on Wednesday morning.

Emergency services were called to State Highway 2 between Kennedy Rd and the Meeanee Rd off-ramp just before 7am.

The crash happened in the southbound lane.

St John ambulance treated two patients, in a moderate and serious condition, and took them to Hawke’s Bay Hospital.

Both patients, a man in his teens and a woman in her 40s, were discharged later that day.
