Truck Crash Closes Duffie Drive At Aberdare

 BY IAN CROUCH

A truck driver has escaped serious injury after his rig overturned at Aberdare early Monday morning.

Newcastle Fire Command says the medium sized rigid truck carrying a generator was travelling along Duffie Drive at about 2.30am when the driver lost control and his truck rolled into a dam.

Fire and Hazmat crews were sent to the crash scene.

A heavy tow truck has since removed the trailer

Duffie Drive remains closed to traffic - a heavy lift crane has just arrived to retrieve the prime mover.
