A second serious campervan accident in less than 24 hours has seen one person in hospital in a critical condition and a second person in a serious condition.
Emergency services received calls that a campervan had overturned on Mount Cook Rd at around 2.20pm today.
A Fire and Emergency NZ spokesperson said no one was trapped when they arrived from Twizel, with officers giving care to the two people who were injured before setting up a helicopter landing zone.
A St John Ambulance spokesperson says two helicopters responded, taking one injured person each to Christchurch Hospital.
The crash comes after three people died in a crash near Geraldine overnight.
Police say they were called to the scene after a campervan collided with a barrier and caught on fire, on Te Moana Rd, just after 1am.
All three occupants of the vehicle were killed.
