A man has died and a truck driver taken to hospital after a stationwagon and a semi-trailer collided on the Brisbane Valley Highway near Esk in the early hours of Thursday morning.<\/p>\n

The crash split the stationwagon in two and left debris strewn across the highway.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred about 3:15am at Hamon Cove, between Fernvale and Esk (near Lake Wivenhoe).<\/p>\n

The male driver of the stationwagon died at the scene.<\/p>\n

The male truck driver suffered minor injuries and was transported by ambulance to Ipswich Hospital.<\/p>\n

Traffic on the highway was disrupted for more than 10 hours.<\/p>\n

At 12:15pm Thursday, diversions were still in place around the scene via Gatton Esk Road and Coominya Connection Road; the Brisbane Valley Highway was closed in both directions.<\/p>\n

The Police Forensic Crash Unit is investigating.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
