A four vehicle collision shut part of the A12 for a short while this afternoon.

Suffolk police received reports of a collision shortly after 4pm in the northbound carriageway towards Kessingland near to the junction with the B1532.

A spolice spokesman said there had been no injuries and all vehicles had since been removed to the side of the road.

However officers needed to close part of the road for a short time at round 4.20pm, to allow for vehicles to be recovered.

The vehicles involved were a van, Citroen C3, Vauxhaul Antara and a Ford Mondeo.

The closure may be causing some ongoing traffic delays in the area, which is close to Pakefield Caravan Park.
