A New Sign Introduced at Yesterday’s Memorial Day Observation to be Installed Next Week Outside of the AmVet Charles Loring Post 25.  The Photo Would Not fit on Yesterday’s Story, so Here it is Today!

This afternoon, Tuesday, May 28, at 3:05 pm, troopers responded to a single-vehicle crash along the northbound median of !-295 near Tukey’s Bridge in Portland.  The operator of a SUV told troopers she fell asleep before striking the median concrete barrier and the  vehicle came to rest, blocking the passing lane.  The female operator sustained minor injuries and was transported to Maine Medical Center in Portland by Portland Fire and Rescue.

The crash slowed northbound traffic for approximately 45 minutes until the operator was transported and the vehicle towed according to a press release issued by the Maine State Police office of Public Information.
