A crash just before the Auckland Harbour Bridge is causing congestion just as rush hour begins.

The New Zealand Transport Agency said a crash was blocking the southbound lanes - heading into the city - just before the bridge.

It said motorists should pass the crash scene with care and expect delays.

The crash has been cleared but there are queues back to Esmonde Rd, the NZTA said.
