Two crashes on the Tauranga Eastern Link have caused delays to traffic this morning.

A police spokeswoman said a car crashed into the side barrier just after 6.30am near the Domain Rd off-ramp.

There were no injuries and no blockages.

At 7am police were called to a car stuck in wire rope in the median barrier.

The airbag was activated in the car and the fast lane is blocked, she said.
