The Sunshine Coast-based LifeFlight aeromedical crew today airlifted a man to hospital after a single-vehicle crash in the Fraser Coast region.

The LifeFlight helicopter was tasked at 12.02pm by Retrieval Services Queensland to a road near Gundiah and landed at a private property close to the scene bringing a specialist aeromedical team directly to the patient.

Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics, Queensland Police Service (QPS) officers and Queensland Fire Department (QFD) firefighters attended in a multi-agency response.
