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.

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
