Motorists looking to cross the Hudson River had a slow go of it during the Tuesday evening commute.

A crash involving three vehicles initially resulted in one southbound lane being blocked on the Tappan Zee Bridge, creating gridlock in both directions on the span and approaching it.

The crash, reported at 4:30 p.m., led to stop-and-go delays back to Exit 12 in West Nyack and rubbernecking delays on the Rockland-bound side.

A motor-vehicle crash also caused delays on the Bear Mountain Bridge. The crash occurred on the Westchester-bound side around 5 p.m.
