One person has been seriously injured after a multi-vehicle crash in Horokiwi, Wellington.
The crash brought a motorway and trains to a halt on Tuesday afternoon after a car reportedly flipped over the barrier and landed on its roof, narrowly missing the train tracks that run alongside the SH2 motorway. One other car was seen with a badly damaged front.
The road and trains are now running normally again.
A police spokesperson said they understand there were no life-threatening injuries.
The southbound lanes are now open, but delays are expected to persist for some time according to police.
