Drone footage has captured the scale of flooding that has submerged an east Suffolk road. 

The B1127 Potters Bridge between Wrentham and Southwold has been flooded since Monday after days of heavy rainfall. 

On Tuesday Suffolk Highways closed the road after a request by Suffolk police

The video captures vehicles having to drive through the middle of the flooded road. 

Potters Bridge often becomes impassable when water levels in nearby Eastern Broad become too high and cause flooding on the road. 

A meeting took place in January between representatives of Suffolk County Council's highways team and the Environment Agency and a series of measures were agreed upon. 

The measures included implementing better road signage, clearing and jetting drains and cutting channels into the verge to enable water to drain away.

While the road is flooded drivers are being advised to find alternative routes.
