Police and emergency services were called about the accident in the northbound lanes around 1.30 pm.

One person suffered moderate injuries.

Three of the northbound lanes were blocked for about an hour after the accident, causing heavy congestion, but have now been reopened.

Police and the NZTA are advising motorists to avoid the area and expect delays as congestion subsides.

Auckland’s traffic has already been hampered by the closure of the Harbor Bridge lanes in both directions following last week’s truck accident.
