A man in his early 30s has been airlifted to the John Hunter Hospital by the Westpac Rescue Helicopter following a two-vehicle crash on the New England Highway at Parkville.
The incident occured just after 7am, as two cars collided and one rolled over, leaving the man trapped for over an hour in the flipped vehicle.
Emergency crews eventually freed him, flying him to hospital with lacerations on his head.
He’s currently in a stable condition and has escaped major injury.
Meanwhile, a man and woman in their 50s in the other car have been taken via ambulance to Scone Hospital with minor injuries.
Traffic is now back to normal after earlier delays in both directions.
