Traffic chaos as huge crane tips
A major North Sydney road has been completely shut down, sparking traffic chaos, amid fears a massive crane could tip over. Pennant Hills Rd has become blocked between Marsden and Jenkins Rds after a crane broke off its mounting support over the major arterial Sydney road on Wednesday afternoon. Images of the crane show its top half – or its 'arm' – hanging horizontally alongside other cranes which have theirs pointed upwards. NSW Police confirmed the blockage was 'due to a hazard' in a statement. 'Local diversions are in place. Motorists should follow directions of police and traffic crews on site. Motorists should also allow extra travel time,' a spokesman said. 'Local buses are also diverting away from Pennant Hills Road, missing several stops,' he said. 'Some buses may also be delayed.' More to come.
