Tuesday's Westboroughing (similar to Boston's Storrowing) happened around 11 a.m. in the northbound lane near Willow Street, according to town police.

The semitrailer made it under the railroad overpass, but the trailer got stuck. Westborough police said the incident could be an "extended event" due to the damage to the trailer.
