Overhead sign falls on Worcester highway

Highway sign falls down in Worcester

WORCESTER - Part of a highway in Worcester had to be shut down during rush hour Tuesday morning so crews could remove an overhead sign that fell on the road.

It happened on I-190 southbound, a mile before Exit 1. Two lanes had to be closed and traffic was detoured at Exit 2, MassDOT said.

Twitter user @miss_shush snapped a photo of the fallen sign at about 7:30 a.m.
