The coastguard have been called after there were concerns for the safety of a person on the Orwell Bridge.
The police were initially called to reports of a female on the bridge shortly before 7pm this evening.
They attended the scene to find a person who later safely left the bridge with officers.
As a precaution, the police called the coastguard at Felixstowe who also attended the scene.
The A14 was also closed for a short period of time while the police dealt with the incident.
The scene has since been cleared and the road has now reopened.
