Commuter chaos after six-car crash
A multi-vehicle crash along the Hume Highway, northbound of the M5 has caused major delays, with traffic piling up for nine kilometres behind it.
Officers attached to the Liverpool City Police Area Command were called to the scene, along with NSW Fire and Rescue and NSW Ambulance.
Six cars were involved, with a NSW Fire and Rescue spokesman stating that it was a “nose to tail” incident. The accident happened around 5:50am Wednesday morning.
Paramedics have assessed several drivers, with two people taken to hospital for observation.
The crash occurred 500m before the ramp off at Edmondson Park, forcing the closure of two of the four northbound lanes.
The site has since been cleared with all lanes reopened.
This is just one of many crashes and breakdowns this morning across multiple suburbs such as North Parramatta and the M1 approaching Dog Trap Road, making it a chaotic morning for commuters.
More to come.
