Emergency services are struggling to move a truck that is stuck on the M1 Pacific Motorway northbound off-ramp to Newcastle Link Road on Monday morning.
The truck carrying a wide load was using the off-ramp earlier this morning when its cargo shifted, causing the vehicle to get wedged on the ramp at Cameron Park.

The incident is causing massive traffic issues, as the road remains closed to motorists.
Northbound drivers wanting to travel east on Newcastle Link Road can exit the motorway at George Booth Drive and take Cameron Park Drive to Newcastle Link Road.

Emergency services and traffic crews are expected to remain on site for some time.
