A “well-involved” building fire producing “significant smoke” has closed a busy road in Auckland’s Onehunga.

Multiple crews from across Auckland are responding to the fire which Fire and Emergency New Zealand was alerted to just after 8pm on Sunday.

Police said officers were called to assist and the building is producing “significant smoke”.

“Those in the area are advised to stay inside and close windows and doors.

“Motorists are advised to avoid the area and expect delays.”

Cordons are in place on Onehunga Mall between Arthur and Church streets, police said.

St John have told RNZ it has one ambulance stationed at the scene as a precaution.
