Sunshine Coast traffic: Emergency services called to crash on Nicklin Way at Currimundi

Motorists have reported heavy delays on Nicklin Way after separate crashes closed lanes of the major road and left three people in hospital, one in a critical condition.

Emergency services were called to Nicklin Way for a second time after a two-vehicle crash at Currimundi.

A Queensland Ambulance Service spokeswoman said paramedics attended the crash on the major road about 8.40am.

The nose-to-tail reportedly blocked lanes heading north and one fire crew was helping to make the scene safe.

One person was taken to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a stable condition as a result of the crash.
