Fire and ambulance crews were also called to the scene, as was the air ambulance.

The road is currently closed in both directions at junction 43 eastbound and junction 46 westbound.

Diversions are in place and drivers are advised to find alternative routes while initial investigations are conducted and the carriageway is cleared and made safe.

Suffolk Police said no details of any casualties will be released at present and that the road will remain closed for a "considerable length of time tonight".

They also thanked drivers for their patience while the incident is being dealt with.

It comes following two incidents on the A14 earlier today, with the eastbound carriageway closed at junction 43 after a lorry hit a tyre.
