ORIGINAL POST: Motorists are still being urged to avoid the Bruce Highway heading north towards Caboolture due to multi-vehicle crashes this morning.

Queensland Traffic website says in an update just before 11am: “All lanes blocked northbound towards Caboolture. Long delays expected.

“Emergency services are on scene/en-route,” said the website using information from Transport and Main Roads.

The post says the incident happened after the Buchan Road exit to Morayfield, but earlier reports suggested there was a second crash further south.

Traffic cameras show huge tailbacks in the area, stretching back towards Burpengary and North Lakes.
