Motorists driving on the main route connecting Kettering, Thrapston and Huntingdon have been hit with delays following the collision.
The horror smash involved one car, according to National Highways.
The A-road has been closed since for an investigation.
Motorists were warned of 30-minute delays on approach as the rush hour gets underway, with rush-hour traffic snarling back for 15 miles.
Local village roads could become congested as the A14 normally takes the brunt of traffic between Thrapston and Huntingdon.
“Emergency services including Cambridgeshire Police are in attendance,” National Highways said in a statement.
“National Highways contractors will also be assisting with traffic management.
“Due to the nature of the incident, the road is expected to be closed for a significant length of time, this is to allow for Police collision investigation works to take place.”
Cambridgeshire Constabulary said: “Please be aware of road closures on A14 between junctions to Catworth and Spaldwick in both directions, due to an ongoing incident.
“Please find alternative routes.”
