A motorcycle police officer pursued a car, which was travelling at speed along William Hovell Drive towards the scene of the truck rollover.
People took evasive action at the site of the truck rollover to avoid the oncoming car, after they were alerted by the motorcycle officer's sirens.
ACT Fire and Rescue and ACT Ambulance responded to the truck rollover at 1pm and a pumper and commander remained on scene to control a spill from the truck.
A male driver was transported to Canberra Hospital by paramedics.
The community are advised to avoid the area and seek an alternative route, the Emergency Services Agency said in a statement.
The road was expected remained closed on Friday afternoon after the truck was cleared while clean up continued to remove the truck's load from the road.
Police have appealed for people with dashcam footage or who may have seen a dark blue VT Holden Commodore with ACT registration to contact police.
