The second long weekend in a row means more gridlock in and around Brisbane as holiday-makers hit the road this afternoon.
Motorists were facing hour-long delays on the Pacific Motorway to the Gold Coast.
A crash soundbound on the Pacific Motorway at Eight Mile Plains just before 5pm was causing delays near the Logan Rd on-ramp.
Earlier, northbound traffic on the same motorway was impacted by a three-vehicle pile-up near exit 5 at Greenslopes that closed two lanes, police said.
