A truck has been involved in an incident causing 50 litres of diesel to spill from its ruptured fuel tank during Brisbane’s peak hour traffic this morning.
At 7:30am, emergency services were called to Beaudesert Road and Sussex Road in Brisbane’s south and the City Council were notified so chemical absorption materials could be brought to clear the scene.
A Queensland Fire and Emergency Services spokesman says the truck’s 200-litre tank was luckily not full at the time of the crash, and Police also say motorists should avoid the area and take extra care because of the slippery conditions.
