WESTBOROUGH, MA — It's happened again: a semitrailer driver Thursday morning got stuck attempting to drive under the rail bridge in downtown Westborough.

That means drivers are in for a day of delays in the area as police and fire crews work to get the truck out.

The Westborough Fire Department reported the bridge strike around 10 a.m. In an update a half hour later, the department said East Main (also known as Route 30) would be closed for a "significant amount of time."
