An "urgent" road closure has been put in place on a major road which is liable to melting in high temperatures.
Suffolk Highways announced shortly before 7am this morning that the A143 is closed near Stanton.
This is "due to the condition of the road".
A spokesman for Suffolk Highways said: " Any further updates and additional information will be issued in due course."
It was only yesterday when the agency announced works to repair the major route, following melting during the heatwaves.
The permanent repairs were scheduled to take place in early August, with a temporary 30mph speed limit in place.
At the time, a spokesman said: "We are continuing to closely monitor the condition of the A143 in Stanton through daily inspections and will carry out further treatments if required to help keep the route safe.
"Permanent repair works are currently scheduled for early August."
