A driver has been pulled from a crane after it rolled on the Gateway Motorway in Brisbane’s north, blocking all northbound lanes for hours.
The vehicle blocked all northbound lanes, causing delays during the morning commute.“Upon arrival on scene, there was a significant amount of traffic on the gateway,” Queensland Ambulance Service senior operations supervisor Glen Morrison said.“There was a very large crane that was blocking all northbound lanes of the gateway on its side with the occupant still inside the cabin.”
The driver, in his late 30s, was freed from the crane and rushed to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital in a serious condition with head, spinal and pelvic injuries.
