The A47 was closed in both directions due to overrunning roadworks. 

The major route was shut between the A1117 and the A1144 near Lowestoft on Tuesday morning. 

National Highways said the closure was in place due to planned overnight roadworks that had overrun their agreed end time. 

A spokesman for National Highways said: "Contractors are on scene working to remove the closure as soon as possible."

According to the AA Traffic Map there were some delays in the area.
