A14 reopens after serious three-car crash

The A14 has fully reopened after it was closed for about 11 hours following a serious collision between three cars, in which one car was reported to have rolled.

National Highways said the eastbound carriageway, between junction 35, for Cambridge, and junction 37, for Newmarket, in Suffolk, was shut at about 23:45 GMT on Friday, and reopened at about 10:30 the next day.

The westbound section between junctions 37 and 36, for Six Mile Bottom, was also shut for several hours while debris was cleared.

A driver, from Suffolk, stuck in the incident for about "eight hours", said she was left "incredibly cold" and was given very little information.

National Highways traffic officers and contractors assisted the emergency services with traffic management.

Cambridgeshire Police turned vehicles around and investigated the scene of the crash.

Steph, who only wanted her first name used, said it took her an additional eight hours to get home and "the problem was the lack of information so I ended up sleeping in a switched off car which was incredibly cold".

She said she was left "tired and confused" and struggled to reheat her body.

She added that she was most "concerned about those involved in the crash".

A spokesperson for National Highways thanked motorists for their patience.
