TAILBACKS are building on the A127 after a motorbike accident.
Prince Avenue was closed Southend-bound just after the Tesco roundabout following a motorbike crash, in which the motorcyclist was the only one involved, at about 7.20am.
Emergency services were called to the scene, where an ambulance crew treated the motorcyclist while fire crews dealt with a fuel spill in the road.
The motorcyclist was taken to Southend Hospital but an East of England Ambulance Service spokesman said his injuries were not believed to be serious.
The scene was made safe by firefighters by 7.46am but one lane remained closed until about 8.40am.
