A lorry and car have crashed on a busy Suffolk road, closing it to traffic.

Suffolk police received reports of the collision on the A11 southbound at Barton Mills, just before the Fiveways roundabout at around 2.45pm .

A police spokesman said the lorry collided with the car and then crashed into the central reservation.

The ambulance service has been called, though no details of any injuries have been reported.

Police closed the road while dealing with the accident. Although it has since reopened, the spokesman said it was likely to be closed again to allow for recovery, at around 4.45pm.
