Diesel Spill Causing Traffic Delays on Pacific Highway

BY ISABEL EVERETT

A truck leaking fuel is causing delays on the Pacific Highway, adjacent to Grahamstown Dam at Kings Hill on the Pacific Highway. 

Just after 12pm on Monday, crews from Raymond Terrace Fire Station arrived on scene, the driver had attempted to stem the flow of fuel but was unsuccessful.

Firefighters are currently working to clean up the fuel which is on approximately 300m of roadway, and render the area safe.

No diesel has leaked into any drains or waterways.

The Rural Fire Brigade and NSW Police are also in attendance to assist and divert traffic, and are advising  motorists to exercise caution if you are driving through the area.
