RAIL commuters in Ipswich are facing delays this morning due to a member of a train crew being unavailable.

A spokesman for Greater Anglia said as a result of the problem, the 7.10am service from Colchester to Ipswich has been cancelled and the 7.38 service from Ipswich to Liverpool Street will now start from Colchester at 7.59am.

Meanwhile, the A137 in Ipswich is partially blocked due to a broken down highways truck, near Ipswich Crown Court.

The incident is expected to cause some delays on the road.
