Redirect Custom Post Type from Child Taxonomies

I have created a Custom Post type and its own respective taxonomy.

I have for example this URL structure: /

The same content can also be accessible through this link: /

How can I write a rewrite so the second URL is not available especially for google SEO perspective and avoid duplicate content

Your taxonomy is set to 'hierarchical' => true, do you have the post included in both the parent and child category?

If you untick the parent category and only tick sub-category then it should use the first URL only.
