Motorists aiming to travel away from central Auckland on the Northwestern motorway are facing long delays tonight because a three-car crash is blocking several westbound lanes.
The crash adds to further delays on the motorway system as drivers tackle wet conditions.
A motorist heading west told the Herald there were"big delays getting on the motorway from the city".
