The details: The collision occurred at around 4.50pm on Monday 7th April, according to police.

  • The motorcyclist was taken to hospital, though the extent of their injuries has not been disclosed.

  • The road reopened just before 7pm after being closed for investigation work.

  • The incident caused significant disruption, with westbound traffic at Junction 52 halted for more than two hours.

What they're saying: Officers are particularly interested in dash cam footage showing "a van pulling a trailer at around 4.30pm."

The bottom line: Anyone with information can assist the inquiry by contacting Suffolk Police via their website (www.suffolk.police.uk/tell-us), email (SCIU@norfolk.police.uk) or by calling 101, quoting reference CAD 219 of 7th April.
