Southbound travellers experienced heavy delays on Saturday after a truck crash on the M1 closed lanes and diverted traffic, resulting in eight hour delays.<\/p>\n

\"<\/p>\n

At around 7:35am, a B-double combination travelling south crashed into a concrete barrier under the Allison Road underpass. As crews worked to clean up the scene, lanes were closed and traffic was diverted onto Sparks Rd.<\/p>\n

\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Traffic became bumper to bumper along the M1, Sparks Road, the Pacific Highway, Hue Hue Road and Old Maitland Road as drivers attempted to reach the M1 interchange at Tuggerah.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although all lanes on the M1 were open by 1:10pm, traffic was still heavy around the area until 4:30pm with NSW Central Coast Incident Alerts, News and Information warning drivers to allow extra travel time until conditions returned to normal.<\/p>\n
