There are currently long delays after a car burst into flames outside Hadleigh. 

Fire crews were called to the A1071 just outside the town at about 11.40am on Thursday. 

A spokeswoman for Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service said on arrival crews found the car well alight. 

The fire had also spread to a nearby hedge. 

The car has been completely destroyed in the blaze. 

Video footage shows the car was parked just off the road but it still caused lengthy delays in the area while firefighters attended. 

According to the AA Traffic Map there are still heavy delays in the area.
