MANCHESTER, NH — A truck carrying lawncare chemicals was traveling southbound Friday on Interstate 293 when it lost control. The truck left the right side of the roadway and veered left flipping over the guardrail and landing upside down in the northbound lane. The accident on I-293 that occurred at about 5 p.m. closed one lane of travel backing traffic up for miles. Emergency crews immediately began to mitigate the fluids leaking from the truck that was located next to the banks of the Merrimack River. Duval's Towing was called to respond with a hazardous materials truck to apply booms to contain the spill, and clean up the fluids. TruGreen sent an additional truck to the scene so that crews could pump the chemicals from the damaged truck. The accident scene was cleared at about 7:45 p.m. The preliminary information is that the driver did not suffer any serious injuries. Patch will update as additional information becomes available.
