Two people are in a serious condition after a single-car crash on Kaipara Coast Highway.

The car reportedly left the road on a bend and rolled, end on end, through bush before ending up in a paddock.

No one was trapped.

Two Auckland Westpac Rescue Helicopter crews were called to the scene about 1pm.

They attended to two people in a serious condition.

A man and a woman aged in their 30s and 40s were flown to Auckland City Hospital.

A police spokesperson said the incident happened between Omaumau Rd and Ogle Rd.

It didn't appear the road was closed, but traffic management would be in place as needed, the spokesperson said.

Auckland Rescue Helicopter Trust pilot James Tayler said they landed in a paddock below the road.

"The car had obviously come through a line of fairly thick hedges and trees … it was in pretty poor condition, dented all over. It looked like it had rolled end over end down the bank scattering contents across the paddock."

Tayler said from what he understood, one of the occupants managed to get out of the vehicle and then helped the other out.

Both were lying on the ground next to the car when emergency services arrived.

Tayler said they were both injured but conscious and "obviously very shocked".

Emergency services were assisted by a local farmer who lived nearby.

He helped transport the patients from the scene of the crash to the helicopters, which weren't able to land in the immediate vicinity because of the terrain.
