Southbound drivers on the Gateway Motorway are experiencing huge delays after a garbage truck jack-knifed at an on-ramp in Banyo, causing a logjam of about seven kilometres.
Police said the truck came to grief at the Gateway Motorway on-ramp, at Nudgee Road opposite a service station, blocking both southbound lanes.
Braun and Deagan Deviation Roads are completely blocked with no access to the motorway.
An Australian Traffic Network spokesman said rubbish from the truck was all over the road, and urged drivers to avoid travelling on the Gateway if possible.
Initial reports suggest the truck hit a guard rail and lost control.
It is not known if there are any injuries.
The accident is likely to cause problems for people catching morning flights at Brisbane Airport.
