A crash was blocking lanes on Auckland’s Northwestern Motorway on Thursday evening.
Traffic is crawling across Auckland’s motorways after a crash and a breakdown.

Police were alerted at about 7.20pm on Thursday.
Emergency services are at the scene between the Massey Rd on-ramp and Coronation Rd off-ramp.
Motorists are advised to pass with care and continue to expect considerable delays in the area.
