A man has serious injuries after an early morning crash south of Wingham.

Huron County OPP say he was driving on Harriston Road (County Road 87) near C Line Road, between Bluevale and Wroxeter, when he lost control of his vehicle and rolled into a ditch.

The driver, a 28-year-old man from Wingham, was taken by ambulance to a local hospital.

He was later airlifted to a London hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Harriston Road was closed between Amberley Road (County Road 86) and Kieffer Line for most of the day while OPP investigated the cause of the crash.

It has now re-opened.
