The A47, A149 and A10 were all affected, with the A47 eastbound exit slip road being closed altogether. It reopened last night after police investigations.

The incident caused traffic pandemonium throughout Lynn, with nearly all roads out of the town gridlocked.

It took one driver more than 45 minutes to travel from Tuesday Market Place to Saturday Market Place, while another travelled 0.8 miles in one hour when trying to drive home after work.
