KINGSTON, MASS. (WHDH) - A dump truck slowed evening traffic on Route 3 in Kingston on Wednesday after it got stuck under an overpass.
Troopers responding to the southbound side of the highway between exits 10 and 9 found the truck wedged up against a bridge, according to Massachusetts State Police.
The bed of the dump truck went vertical and did not clear the overpass.
Only one lane of traffic was getting by and the on-ramp to Route 3 south was closed.
All lanes have since reopened.
MassDOT officials plan to inspect the bridge for possible damage.
There were no reported injuries.
