Truck hits sign at entrance to westbound Ted

By Globe Staff

A tall truck hit an electric sign near the entrance to the westbound Ted Williams Tunnel this morning, forcing traffic on Interstate 90 down to one lane, State Police said.

Both lanes of the westbound tunnel were closed for roughly 10 minutes while workers took down the sign, police said.

Both lanes reopened to traffic at 8:48 a.m. but delays persisted, backing up into East Boston.
