Major roadworks had closed the entry slip road of the eastbound carriageway between the Haughley New Street junction and the Stowmarket junction.
Meanwhile an accident near junction 24 of the A12 closed the London bound carriageway of the road this morning.
The stretch of road near Kelvedon was reopened soon after 6am but traffic was delayed for nearly two hours after the incident.
