NSW Transport Management Centre advised drivers of the closure around 6.15am, amid busy traffic conditions causing queues around five kilometres near the Hawkesbury River Bridge.
The road was re-opened around 6.50am, but heavy traffic conditions were expected around the scene for some time.
Traffic is queued on the main deck of the bridge around nine kilometres, a spokesperson for the Transport Management Centre said.
