"It demonstrates just how heavily it is used by lorries and that the causes are often unrelated to safety engineering methods.
"As always, there will be an investigation to find out what happened and appropriate action taken."
Police, ambulance and highway maintenance attended the scene and no injuries were reported to Hampshire Constabulary.
