The first incident occurred about 5.35pm in Braddon, after three cars collided at the corner of Doonkuna Street and Donaldson Street.
A spokesperson for ACT Policing said traffic was flowing slowly just before 6pm, but no lanes were blocked.
Two cars also collided at the Adelaide Avenue on ramp in Deakin about 5.40pm, with the spokeswoman saying traffic delays were to be expected in the area.
A five-car collision blocked the right lane south-bound on Tuggeranong Parkway, near the Scrivener Dam turn off.
The crash took place at about 4.45pm and police said motorists should use an alternate route if they were planning on using the parkway to get home.
A fourth crash on the Barton Highway near Capricorn Horse Stud has closed one lane in both directions.
Police and ambulance crews attended the scene of the four-vehicle crash, which occurred at about 5.30pm.
No one was reported as being trapped and two people were transferred to Yass Hospital with minor injuries.
A spokesperson for NSW Police said traffic was moving slowly through the area. "Good place to avoid at the moment if you can," he said.
