A Sunshine Coast man is one of two people to have died in a two-vehicle traffic crash on the Bruce Highway on Friday morning.

Queensland Police stated that initial investigations indicated that at about 8am, a white Hyundai hatchback was travelling southbound on the Bruce Highway at Owanyilla on the Fraser Coast, near Talia Lane, and a white Volkswagen van was travelling northbound when they collided.

The driver of the Hyundai, a 43-year-old Kallangur man, sustained critical injuries and died at the scene.

The driver of the Volkswagen, a 57-year-old Buddina man, sustained critical injuries and died at the scene.

The passenger of the Volkswagen, an 11-year-old Buddina boy, suffered injuries and was transported by air to Sunshine Coast University Hospital.
