A lorry fire on the A14 to the east of Ipswich this morning has partially blocked an adjoining slip road.

Suffolk Constabulary received a call at 6am, stating the vehicle had managed to pull over on to the east bound entry slip road at Seven Hills.

Fire crews from Princes Street and Ipswich East attended shortly after 6am and extinguished the blaze, which was under the lorry cab.

A recovery vehicle is expected by 7.45am.
