The A14 westbound has reopened after a lorry blocked a lane near the Copdock Interchange.
Police were called shortly before 2.40am on Monday, May 17 to the incident.
A slip road at Copdock was closed to allow for recovery of the vehicle.
There was a one-lane closure in place, with traffic reportedly queuing back to the Orwell Bridge.
The lorry has been moved but mud on the road is still to be cleared up.
