A car fire has caused chaos on Auckland's Northern Motorway.

It blocked traffic in both directions at the Victoria Park flyover.

NZTA said the motorway has been reopened, but warned of major delays going south over the Harbour Bridge 

Emergency services are on the scene.

There is also a crash, city-bound, on the Harbour Bridge.

It is blocking the left lane of the clip-on.

The delays may add to the already-expected traffic by those travelling in and around the city to attend the Auckland Lantern Festival, which kicks off tonight at the Auckland Domain at 7.30pm.
