Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) has launched emergency inspections in the Prudential Tunnel following a terrifying incident where concrete fell on motorists. The incident caused a traffic jam in the city, but fortunately, no injuries were reported. MassDOT explained that recent temperature fluctuations caused the concrete to become saturated, freeze, and then come loose.
In response to the incident, MassDOT released a video showing the damage done to the tunnel and indicating that further inspections are ongoing to ensure the safety of all motorists using the tunnel. The agency has assured the public that they are taking the necessary steps to address the issue and prevent future incidents.
Authorities are urging motorists to exercise caution while traveling through the Prudential Tunnel and to be aware of any updates or advisories from MassDOT regarding the situation. This is a developing story, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
