Long delays are currently being experienced on the A120 at Great Bromley due to a broken down car.
The vehicle broke down between the A133 junction and the Crown Interchange over an hour ago, but has caused lengthy tailbacks, reported to be in excess of three miles, in the area.
The car had partially blocked the westbound carriageway.
