Vehicle Plunges Into Waltham Retention Pond Prompting I-95 Ramp Closure

Emergency crews are working to remove the submerged car.

Overview

  • The car left the road between I-95 northbound and Wyman Street in Waltham and ended up in a small retention pond.
  • Video from the scene showed the vehicle mostly underwater with only the roof visible.
  • MassDOT closed the Wyman Street on-ramp to I-95 northbound to let emergency crews remove the car.
  • The closure is expected to last several hours, which could slow access for drivers using that ramp.
  • Authorities have not said whether anyone was hurt, and updates are still developing.
