Holiday traffic disrupted by car alight

Vehicle fire on the M1

Traffic congestion on the M1 from long weekend holidaymakers was made even worse on Monday afternoon after a vehicle caught alight.

A single lane of the M1 and entry to the truck weigh station were temporarily closed while firefighters from Calga/Mt White Rural Fire Brigade, Narara Rural Fire Brigade and Kariong Fire and Rescue NSW attended to the fire.

The vehicle was moved to the side of the road to fully re-open all northbound lanes, before it was removed.
