A MAN was hospitalised following a truck rollover on the Hume Freeway near Benalla last Thursday morning. A Department of Transport and Planning spokesperson said both southbound lanes of the freeway were blocked for a stretch between Sydney Road and the Midland Highway, following the rollover around 9:30am. An Ambulance Victoria spokesperson said a man in his 40s was transported by road to Northeast Health Wangaratta in a stable condition, after being treated for upper body injuries. The Department of Transport and Planning spokesperson said crews spent hours cleaning fertiliser from the road after the incident with the truck also having to be recovered from the median strip.
