Emergency services are at the scene of a crash on Auckland's Southwestern Motorway early this evening.
The NZ Transport Agency posted a photo of long queues near the Maioro St off-ramp, near Dominion Road.
"A crash is blocking the left lane northbound on the Sth Wstn Mwy just prior to the Maioro St off-ramp.
"Expect delays from Dominion Road,'' NZTA said on its Twitter page.

The motorcyclist suffered minor injuries.
