Truck stopping traffic at 1A in East Boston

Usually trucks get stuck where Neptune and Bennington streets and Rte. 1A come together, but today's truck-related jam up, Eastie Strong shows us, was at the Sumner Tunnel entrance.

That truck doesn't look especially tall.

So chances are good that truck wouldn't make it through.

Does anyone at MADOT care that the sign boards are messed up?

The messages change on these boards. If you take a snapshot, you might get gibberish.

They aren't actually messed up. Signs like that never come out in pictures because of how LEDs work - they are actually flashing repeatedly at very high frequency. If your camera has a high shutter speed, you're quite likely to catch the sign in between those flashes.
