A truck has jackknifed at the mouth of the Burnley Tunnel, causing peak hour traffic chaos.

The two right-hand lanes have just been re-opened after the entire freeway was blocked earlier this morning.

Cars are now crawling along to the entrance of the Monash Freeway, with the truck also on the move.

VicRoads: “Get off the West Gate Freeway as soon as you can.”

Vehicles already caught on the road are facing very long stints on the road.

Ross and John listener Stacey says “it’s an absolute disaster”.

“All the cars and trucks behind the truck are out of their cars just talking because there’s nowhere to go.”
