The Tamahere off-ramp on State Highway 1 has now re-opened.

It was closed from around 7.15am on Friday following a crash, which caused extensive traffic delays for those heading to Fieldays.

The crash involved three vehicles in the southbound lane.

There were no significant injuries but there was traffic congestion back towards Hamilton.

Traffic has now eased, the NZ Transport Agency said on X.
