A car that was on fire, blocking State Highway 1 near Wellington, has now been cleared.
Emergency services earlier responded to reports of the burning car at Pukerua Bay, heading northbound.
Police said the car was currently blocking both northbound lanes of the State Highway, and are asking motorists to avoid the area or take alternative routes.
The New Zealand Transport Agency said the blockage was near Airlie Rd, and that drivers should expect delays.
