    There's been another serious crash leaving a motorcyclist with critical injuries


    The motorcycle and a car collided on Hukanui Road in Chartwell shortly after 8 this evening.

    Traffic management is in place.

    Earlier, a motorcyclist died in a crash on State Highway 6, the Harihari Highway south of Hokitika.

    Police were called to the scene at Kakapotahi near the Waitaha River Bridge about 5:15.

    They say no other vehicle was involved.

    The Kings Birthday Weekend road death toll is now 5, the highest since 6 people died on our roads over the same weekend in 2019.
