A man in his 60s has died in a crash on the Northern Motorway, north of Auckland.

The crash occurred in the southbound lane by Rosedale Rd, just south of Albany.
The man who died was about 60 years old, an ambulance spokeswoman said.
The two centre lanes, both southbound and northbound, were blocked as a result of the crash, a police statement said.
