A 38-year-old male motorbike rider was treated by paramedics at the scene before being taken to St Vincent’s Hospital with a suspected broken femur.

The 25-year-old female driver of the ute was not injured in the accident.

The motorbike rider has been taken to hospital. 

Specialist police from the Metropolitan Crash Investigation Unit have launched an investigation into the accident.

Three citybound lanes and one northbound lane were closed for a significant amount of time during peak hour this morning causing huge delays for commuters.

All lanes have now been reopened, but major delays are still affecting the area, a spokeswoman for Transport Management Centre confirmed.

"Southbound traffic approaching the bridge is queued 12k kilometres, back to the start of the M2," she said. 

Motorists travelling towards the Sydney CBD from the north and west are advised to delay their plans.
