Commuters travelling on Auckland’s Southwestern Motorway this morning are being told to expect delays after two separate crashes blocked multiple lanes.
Police said the first crash was reported to police at around 6.30am, and involved “multiple vehicles” in the southbound lanes near Hillsborough.
The two right-hand lanes were blocked. However, it has now been cleared with all lanes open.
“Allow extra time for long delays, from Waterview, to slowly ease this morning,” NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi said.
A second crash was also reported in the northbound lanes. One lane heading northbound before the Hillsborough Rd off-ramp was blocked but has since been moved clear.
“Allow extra time as delays through the area ease.”
