Cause of multiple-truck accident is under investigation.

 

Traffic on in the northbound lane of Route 495 remains backed up for miles in the wake of a crash involving three tractor-trailers in Tewksbury.

The accident took place just after 6:30 a.m. between the exits for Route 38 and Route 133. No injuries have been reported, according to a report on NECN.com.

The crash created a huge mess, as empty paint cans and rice was strewn all over the highway, according to a report by WCVB-Ch. 5. One of the trucks was rear-ended, while another was run off the highway.
