Fatal crash this morning
Police can confirm one person has died following a crash on the South-Western Motorway this morning.
The single vehicle crash was reported just before 5am, on northbound lanes near Onehunga.
Sadly, the sole occupant of this vehicle died at the scene.
Earlier closures of northbound lanes have now lifted, and Police advise motorists to continue to expect delays as earlier backlogs clear.
We appreciate motorists' understanding this morning while emergency services carried out their work.
The Serious Crash Unit examined the scene this morning, and an investigation is underway into this morning's crash on behalf of the Coroner.
