Traffic is gridlocked in West Auckland after a man threatened to jump from the Lincoln Road overbridge.

Police say they were first alerted to the man around 2.30pm.

They've managed to talk him down just in the last few minutes, and he's now in protective custody.

The North-Western motorway and surrounding roads are all open again, but traffic is still very heavy.
