The truck and car collided on the New England Highway at Parkville, about 10 kilometers north of Scone, about 8am.

Diversions were in place around the accident – via Liverpool Street, Middlebrook Road and Cressfield Road – with heavy vehicles on stand-by.

The road was reopened a short time after the crash.

A 61-year-old man was flown from the scene by the Westpac Rescue Helicopter with reported back injuries.

A report will be prepared for the coroner.
