(Sunderland, MA) Another road closure this afternoon in Franklin County. Sunderland Police Department has announced that Route 116 will be closed at Plumtree for downed power lines that could be dangerous. A tractor trailer hit the main power lines that were leading to an apartment building. The power lines are reportedly hanging very low to the ground and are not attached to the pole, leading to fears that they could snap at anytime. It is unknown when the road will be reopened and traffic may be re routed on Hubbard Road to 116.
