Three people have been injured, one seriously, in a crash on State Highway 94 (the Milford Road) this morning.<\/p>\n
Police this afternoon said the two-vehicle crash\u00a0was reported about 10.30am.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The road was partially blocked for a time, causing traffic to back up, but was clear by about 2.30pm.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
A Hato Hone St John spokesman said they responded with one helicopter and one ambulance.<\/p>\n
One person had been airlifted to\u00a0Dunedin Hospital in a serious condition. Two other people were treated at the scene for minor injuries.<\/p>\n
NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi said there was widespread ice and grit in the area, and urged caution on the road.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It’s one of a spate of crashes in the South this morning, after wintry conditions brought freezing temperatures, black ice and fog to many areas.<\/p>\n
