Garbage truck tips over on Route 1 in N. Kingstown

NORTH KINGSTOWN – A garbage truck tipped over sometime around 9 a.m. today and landed on its side on the median barriers of Route 1.

Workers were seen climbing out of the truck, which lay perpendicular to the northbound and southbound lanes just after 9 a.m. No other vehicles appeared to be involved.

As plenty of people head to the beaches on this road, the accident could hold up traffic.
