Truck crash shuts Western Highway

VICTORIA's Western Highway has been closed after a truck jack-knifed, blocking all lanes.

The driver of the semi-trailer escaped unharmed after the emergency near Ercildoune Rd in Trawalla.

The truck was driving eastbound when the incident occurred at 6.35am.

Police expect the road to remain blocked for up to three hours, while heavy haulage removalists are called in.

Westbound traffic has been diverted through Ararat and eastbound to the Sunraysia Highway.

Meanwhile, a nine-year-old boy is fighting for his life after he was hit by a car while riding his bike in Geelong.

The boy was riding along the highway in Norlane when he was knocked off his bike at 7.35pm last night.

He was flown to the Royal Children's Hospital with head injuries in a critical condition.
