A small truck has hit a rail overpass at a busy Melbourne intersection, causing a headache for drivers and public transport users.

Dashcam video captured the moment the truck drove through the intersection and hit the top of the bridge, wedging the vehicle and tipping it on an angle.

It happened at one of Melbourne's busiest intersections - Flinders Street and Spencer Street, which also has tram lines plus multiple train lines above it.

As expected, the stuck truck halted traffic when the driver underestimated the vehicle's height.

Public transport including trams and trains were stopped following the incident, but some lines have since resumed - with delays.

More to come.
