Auckland’s southern motorway was reduced to a standstill this evening after a crash between a car and motorcycle forced the closure of all southbound lanes.
Police were called to the scene between the Tecoma Street off-ramp and the Tecoma Street on-ramp southbound at 5.30pm.
Traffic is backed up for about 6 km from the Tecoma Street off-ramp.
The motorcyclist is seriously injured, a police spokesperson said.
