SH2 remains CLOSED to southbound traffic at the Kennedy Good Bridge. Expect significant southbound delays through the area as congestion is currently back past the SH2/SH58 Haywards Interchange. Road users are advised to consider an alternate route. ^JP https://t.co/nmQlUJmRc2
Southbound lanes on SH2 and the intersection with Kennedy Good Bridge were closed following the crash, while access to Fairway Drive and Avalon was also blocked.
At 8am, traffic heading into Wellington had backed up past the SH2/SH58 Haywards Interchange.
All lanes reopened just before 9am, but NZTA/Waka Kotahi said road users should expect delays until traffic congestion cleared.
