"National Highways contractors will also be assisting with traffic management.

"Due to the nature of the incident, the road is expected to be closed for a significant length of time, this is to allow for police collision investigation works to take place.”

The closure has led to drivers having to find alternative routes, with some reporting that the incident is causing congestion on nearby roads such as through the village of Titchmarsh.
