Crashes in Auckland are causing traffic delays for motorists ahead of Labour Weekend.
Auckland Transport advised motorists to allow extra time for their journeys this morning. A crash at 7.40am along the northwestern motorway was blocking the middle lane eastbound after Newton Rd, the New Zealand Transport Agency said. Footage from traffic cameras showed the speed on the motorway had been reduced to 50kmh.
Tamaki Makaurau Road Policing Manager Inspector Scott Webb says traffic congestion is going to reach peak levels on Friday and Saturday as motorists leave Auckland for the long weekend.
Inspector Webb says three people were killed and eight people were seriously injured on our roads across Tamaki Makaurau during Labour Day Weekend in 2017.
