A truck driver has managed to escape from his truck after it rolled over on a popular freeway at White Hall.

The truck rolled onto its side near the Pope Road Bridge on the eastern carriageway of the South Eastern Freeway just after 9am on Sunday.

Traffic will be diverted at the Monarto exit.

The freeway will be closed to eastbound traffic for around two hours while a tow truck attends and clears the scene.

Diversions will be in place for motorists via the Monarto exit to travel along Old Princes Highway into Murray Bridge.

The approved heavy vehicle route is via Old Princes Highway, Adelaide Rd, Maurice Rd onto Hindmarsh Rd, left onto Swanport Rd then right to get back onto the freeway.

The truck driver involved in the rollover was taken to hospital by ambulance as a precaution.
