All southbound lanes of State Highway 1 in Auckland were closed for a time on Saturday evening at the Greenlane off-ramp due to a serious crash involving a motorcycle and two cars shortly before 7pm.
Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency was asking motorists to use alternative routes before the motorway partially re-opened about 7.45pm. Shortly before 8.30pm the agency said all southbound lanes were open.
Earlier, queues had been building north of the crash to the Gillies Ave ramp.
