Morning traffic chaos after truck slams into M1 barrier

Motorists are being warned of hefty delays on the Pacific Motorway this morning following an earlier truck crash.

The vehicle is believed to have slammed into a barrier northbound at the Exit 77 off-ramp at Carrara around 1am.

Thankfully the driver managed to escape physical injury.

Crews are still working to clear the area, with at least one lane closed northbound.

It’s causing major delays for drivers during the morning peak hour, with traffic currently gridlocked all the way back to Mudgeeraba.
