National Highways said the A47 was closed in both directions between the A1122 at Swaffham and the A148 at Lynn due to a police-led incident.

At around 1pm, Norfolk Police and National Highways confirmed that all road closures had been lifted.

It is understood that emergency services – including an air ambulance – had attended the scene due to safety concerns.

National Highways said, in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter): “Residual delays have cleared and traffic is flowing freely.”
