That’s truly horrible 🫤
Collision at Yarck - avoid the area.
The Maroondah Link (Yarck to Cathkin) and Maroondah Highway (Yarck to the re-join near Koriella) are both closed due to a collision.
Emergency services have advised that the roads are likely to be closed for some time, so motorists are advised to find an alternate route.
