The woman, who was a passenger in one of the cars, was pronounced dead at the scene despite the efforts of paramedics.

Her partner was taken to Princess Alexandra Hospital where he remains in a serious condition.

The east side of Priestdale Rd and Ford Rd were closed, with motorists urge to avoid the area or expect long delays.
