Fatal Crash Shuts I-95 North at Mass.–New Hampshire Border

New Hampshire State Police are investigating a deadly collision that has forced long detours and heavy backups on nearby routes.

Overview

  • The crash occurred Tuesday morning in Seabrook near the Massachusetts border and prompted a full closure of I-95 northbound through Salisbury and Seabrook.
  • State police confirmed the collision was fatal and said they are leading an accident investigation at the scene.
  • Two lanes of I-95 north reopened by about 9 a.m., but officials warned the highway could remain partly restricted for several hours as work continues.
  • Salisbury police posted the initial closure on X and warned drivers that spillover traffic is creating significant backups on I-495 through Salisbury and Amesbury.
  • Commuters should expect delays and use real-time tools such as NewEngland511 to find detours and monitor lane reopenings as the situation develops.
