Update - crash on SH 2 near Tauranga

Two people involved in a crash on SH 2 near Tauranga earlier this afternoon were uninjured.
 
The two people were in a car that collided with a power-pole just after 1.30pm. 
 
They remained in the car until the power had been isolated – they were not trapped in the car as originally thought. 
 
The road has reopened and Police thank motorists for their patience and cooperation while diversions were in place.
