Man Injured in Two Car Crash at Hexham

BY LAUREN FREEMANTLE

A man's been taken to the John Hunter Hospital following a crash on Maitland Road near Sandgate Road this morning.

Emergency services were called to the scene of the two-vehicle smash just before 8 o'clock, where they treated a man for suspected neck and head injuries.

He was still conscious and breathing, while traffic on Maitland Road is now returning to normal after a northbound lane closure.

Motorists are being advised to drive carefully this morning as a thick fog blankets the Hunter.
