A slip has blocked both lanes on State Highway Two "Devils Elbow" between Bay View and Tutira, north of Napier
Police and roading contractors are at the scene and a diversion is in place along Waikoau Rd but a truck and trailer has become stuck on this road stopping traffic from passing.
Police are attempting to get the truck moved in order to get traffic moving again.
Police are urging trucks and larger vehicles not to use the diversion as it is a narrow country road.
At this stage there is no time for State Highway Two to be reopened.
