Why it matters: Morning commuters are facing significant disruption, with multiple road closures forcing traffic onto alternative routes.
The latest:
An overturned lorry has closed the A12 southbound near Copdock
Two further crashes on the A14 westbound have led to closures near Sproughton and Wherstead
Suffolk Police are at the scenes of all three incidents
National Highways warns the A12 recovery operation will be "complex" as the lorry has "come to rest on its side on the verge"
Diversion details: Drivers heading south on the A12 are being directed to:
At Copdock Mill Interchange take the A1214 to Ipswich and continue to the signalised junction with the A1071
At the junction turn left and follow the A1071 to the roundabout with the B1113
At the roundabout take the first exit and follow the B1113 through Washbrook and Copdock to rejoin the A12 southbound at Junction 32B Bentley
Impact: The southbound carriageway looks set to be closed for most of rush hour, with knock-on effects also affecting the A14 westbound near the Copdock Interchange.
The bottom line: Multiple incidents across Ipswich's road network have created significant disruption, with drivers advised to seek alternative routes or expect lengthy delays.
