A major traffic snarl-up has been reported on I-93 Southbound in Braintree after a multi-vehicle crash forced the closure of three right lanes and Exit 6 off-ramp earlier today. According to a tweet from the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT), motorists have been advised to expect delays following the accident.

The collision, which involved multiple vehicles, occurred near Exit 6, causing significant disruptions during the early morning commute. In the following hours, cleanup and investigation into the cause of the crash resulted in an extended closure of part of the interstate, as crews worked to clear the scene. An official tweet from MassDOT explained, "Exit 6 off ramp is closed. Expect delays."

Authorities have not yet released information on any injuries resulting from the crash or the exact number of vehicles involved. Drivers in the area have been forced to seek alternative routes, and the traffic impact is expected to be felt throughout much of the day. Local law enforcement is urging motorists to remain patient and to allow extra time for their travels.

MassDOT is actively updating the public on traffic conditions and the progress of clearing efforts. Commuters and residents in the Braintree region are recommended to stay tuned to MassDOT’s social media channels or local news outlets for the latest traffic advisories and updates.
