Authorities have had to reduce the bridge to two lanes, with a traffic jam building at the site.
“Southbound delays continue to grow following this crash prior to the Harbour Bridge,” Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency said on X.
“Currently, only the left lane remains open.”
The agency has asked motorists to consider using the Western Ring Route going along State Highways 18 and 16 as an alternative.
The crash on the bridge occurred at around 12.10pm today.
“One person is in a critical condition,” a police spokesman said.
“Motorists should expect delays and are advised to take alternative routes.”
Serious Crash investigators are looking into the cause of the incident.
