NOW PLAYING ABOVE

WESTON, Mass. — A crash involving two tractor-trailers on Monday morning left a Massachusetts highway littered with Poland Spring water bottles.

The crash happened on the southbound side of Interstate 95 at Exit 39B to the Massachusetts Turnpike.

A photo shared by the Weston Fire Department showed shards from a splintered pallet and plastic bottles strewn along the side of the highway.

Firefighters blocked the exit to the Pike to allow for safe cleanup efforts. It reopened shortly after 9 a.m., but the right lane remained closed.

Boston 25′s Catherine Parrotta reported drive times of more than 90 minutes from Peabody to Weston.

“You got to think about a workaround, if there is one,” Parrotta advised commuters. “Otherwise, you’re going to have to build in a lot of extra time.”

It wasn’t immediately clear if anyone was injured in the crash.

An investigation is ongoing.
