Perth traffic: Tonkin Highway exit closed after truck rollover in Bullsbrook

A truck rollover has forced part of a major Perth highway to close on Thursday afternoon.

The Tonkin Highway southbound exit to Neaves Road has been shut as emergency crews work to clear the area.

Police are at the scene in Bullsbrook.

A short clip shared by Main Roads shows the truck’s trailer turned on its side, with a load of yellow sand strewn across the left lane.

Motorists are advised to avoid the area.

Earlier, a truck collided with a car further west on Tonkin Highway in Lexia.

The crash forced the closure of the northbound left lane after Gnangara Road, before the area was cleared by 2.33pm.
