The road between Raglan and Hamilton is blocked tonight after a fatal road crash.
The incident, involving a truck and car, happened on State Highway 23 near Whatawhata, west of Hamilton.
The driver of one vehicle has been killed while the driver of the second vehicle has been transported to
Waikato Hospital with moderate injuries.
Police say an alternative route to consider for traffic moving from Raglan towards Hamilton is traversing Ohautira Rd, via Waingaro and on to Ngaruawahia.
Similarly, westbound traffic heading towards Raglan should consider the same route through Waingaro as an alternative to the Waitetuna Valley Rd.
