One person has been taken to hospital in a serious condition after a two-car crash in Waitara, with two others suffering minor injuries.

Emergency services were called to the scene, at the intersection of Princess St and Main North Rd, State Highway 3, about 10.20am yesterday.

One car ended up on its side and a light pole was damaged in the crash. A Hato Hone St John spokesperson said two people were assessed and treated for minor injuries at the scene, while one patient in a serious condition was taken to Taranaki Base Hospital.

The intersection is the first of four between Waitara and Bell Block due to be turned into roundabouts.

The construction of the Princess St roundabout and pedestrian and cyclist underpass in Waitara is scheduled to start this week.
