TRAFFIC on the up section of the Toowoomba Range was reduced to a crawl after a car burst into flames.


Fire engulfed the engine bay of the silver Mazda after the driver pulled over just below the range saddle.


Emergency services and police arrived on the scene at 3.45 pm.


It took fire crews ten minutes to control the blaze which completely gutted the front end of the vehicle.


Westbound traffic was reduced to one lane as emergency services attended the scene.


The sole occupant of the vehicle was not injured.


Both lanes have now reopened.
