Holiday traffic collisions

by TYLER FARDELL and MATT JOHNSTON

The Hunter Westpac rescue helicopter has reportedly airlifted two patients to John Hunter Hospital, following this morning's crash along the Pacific Highway at Herons Creek.
A 9-year-old boy was trapped in one of the vehicles but has since been freed by emergency crews. He and the 37-year-old woman also being airlifted are both in stable, non-life-threatening conditions.

Meanwhile, there's been another accident at 12 Mile Creek along the Pacific Highway, one kilometre north of Bucketts Way. Southbound motorists are using a small access road parallel to the highway to get around the collision and one northbound lane is closed.

Currently, there are no further details. For traffic updates visit https://www.livetraffic.com/
