A Mainfreight truck has been left on the edge of a 15m cliff in the Waioeka Gorge.
The nine-axle truck had rolled and turned over onto its side on State Highway 2 in the gorge, near Opotiki, fire northern communications shift manager Megan Ruru said.
It was being held back from the edge of the cliff by a guard rail, she said.
The driver was out of the vehicle when fire services arrived just before 2pm. The vehicle was full of Chep pallets and vegetables, Ms Ruru said.
A spokeman for St John said they attended the scene, but were stood down by police as the driver only had minor injuries to his arm.
