Traffic flow on Route 1 was significantly impeded Thursday afternoon after a crash near the Foxborough-Wrentham line on Route 1.
The Massachusetts State Police reported the accident around 2:15 p.m. when the operator of a 2013 Kia Optima, which was also traveling northbound in the middle travel lane in the same area, attempted to maneuver into the left lane and struck the rear of the Volvo in the process, according to a preliminary police investigation. The collision caused the operator of the Volvo to lose control of her vehicle, ultimately ending up in the southbound travel lane where she was struck by a tractor-trailer, which was traveling southbound at the time.
