A man has been flown to hospital after he became trapped in a rollover and suffered a significant injury to his head.

A Queensland Ambulance spokesman said the single-vehicle rollover was reported about 6.10am on Christmas Day on Goodwood Rd in Redridge.

The only occupant was trapped inside the car and then was flown to Bundaberg Hospital via helicopter upon being freed.

The man suffered a significant head wound and is in a potentially life-threatening condition, the spokesman said.

Goodwood Rd had been closed near Coach Rd surrounding the crash site.

A Queensland Police spokesman said the road will likely open again soon and detours are currently in place.
