Lawrence Hargrave Drive and Bulli Pass have both reopened in both directions after it was closed following the crash.
Debris from the crash had been spread across the neighbouring road, causing a build-up of traffic and road closures.
Police have established a crime scene, which will be forensically examined by specialist officers from the Crash Investigation Unit.
