All northbound lanes on State Highway 1 between Bombay and Ramarama are currently closed due to a significant crash.
Lane closures are likely to be in place into this evening. Motorists are urged to delay their travel if possible or expect significant delays.
The right southbound lane is also blocked and people are asked to pass with extra care and expect delays.
A full southbound closure may also be necessary so motorists are asked to follow directions of response crews at the scene.
NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi recommends that people delay their travel if possible, avoid the area and use another route.
Further updates will be provided when available.
