Police are appealing for the driver of a lorry to come forward following a crash in the middle of the Orwell Bridge.

The collision happened just before 10.50am on Tuesday, on the westbound carriageway of the A14.

Police were called to reports of a lorry colliding with a car in the middle of the Orwell Bridge. The car was then forced to veer towards the side of the road, said a spokeswoman for the constabulary.

The driver of the car – a blue Mazda – was unharmed in the crash.

An initial rolling road block was replaced by a full lane closure while recovery of the damaged car took place. The lane was reopened just after 11am.

Police are appealing for witnesses to the collision, after the lorry failed to stop at the scene. They have also asked the driver to come forward.

If you can help, call 101 and quote CAD number 128 of August 15.
