MOTORISTS faced traffic woes this morning following an accident on a busy main road, creating mass tailbacks.
The A120's eastbound carriageway was partially blocked in Coggeshall, near to the junction of Colne Road.
Slow moving traffic built up as a result of the incident, causing congestion all the way back to the Marks Farm Roundabout, on the A131.
The traffic was caused by an accident involving two vehicles just before 8am today.
Firefighters from Coggeshall and Saffron Walden attended the scene where they freed a driver who was trapped in their car.
The motorist was left in the care of the ambulance service.
The traffic has since returned to normal in the area.
