UPDATED 4.58PM Two people have been helicoptered to Auckland Hospital following a two-vehicle crash near Warkworth, north of Auckland, this afternoon.

One of the people - an elderly man - was freed from his car after being trapped following the head-on smash at Woodcocks Rd.

"The trapped man was released from his vehicle and both of the people's injuries are believed to be moderate, and not as bad as first thought," a fire service spokesperson said.

Police confirmed the injured people were the drivers of the cars involved.

Emergency services were called at 2:30pm.
