Slow points span from Nudgee Beach to Tanwha across the 60km stretch of M1.
Travelling south of the city, traffic is slow at Springwood and then again towards Coomera on the Gold Coast.
Some delays at the border. Make sure you have your border pass filled out and pack your patience. #GCTraffic pic.twitter.com/dlIewuiqp0

Delays crossing the border into Queensland stand around 35 minutes as the new restrictions ease allowing for more New South Wales regions to enter the state.
