Six people are injured, one seriously, after a head-on crash on the road between Queenstown and Glenorchy.
A police spokesman said emergency services were responding to reports of the two-car collision near Mt Creighton, which was reported about 3.55pm.
One person suffered serious injuries and five others had minor injuries, the spokesman said.
The north-bound lane is blocked while emergency services work at the scene and motorists should expect delays.
A Fire and Emergency New Zealand spokeswoman said crews from Glenorchy and Queenstown stations attended the collision.
No people were trapped and crews stayed on scene until police and ambulance arrived.
A helicopter was also dispatched, the spokeswoman said.
