A truck fire has caused problems on the M1 during this-morning’s early commute.

The blaze broke out just after 6:00 this morning in the southbound lanes at Ormeau

The driver was able to pull his vehicle to the side of the motorway,  but the incident has caused a backlog of traffic with delays reported from Logan City south to the Gold Coast.

Paramedics assessed one person on the scene who was reported to be in a stable condition.

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) stated the fire was at Exit 45.

The cause of the fire will be the subject of an investigation.
