Traffic on Auckland’s Southern Motorway should clear within the hour, after a large truck fire caused delays of up to an hour this morning.

The truck was heading south when it burst into flames near the Ellerslie/Panmure off-ramp around 10:30am.

Four fire appliances were sent to the scene. No one was injured in the blaze.

Police have confirmed traffic is now flowing again and expect it to return to normal soon.
