Motorists in the Manawatu are being warned to expected delays after a logging truck crashed into a ditch on Monday.

The incident happened around 1pm on Mount Stewart Road in Halcombe, just north of Mount Biggs School.

No one was injured in the crash, but a crane is required to move the truck's trailer, a police spokesperson said.

"The road’s closed between Ngaio Road and Sandon Road, and motorists are asked to use alternate routes while the truck is righted."
