Downed power lines on Route 28 in Falmouth led to the road being closed in both directions between Route 151 and Brick Kiln Road.
A crash sent a driver to the hospital with serious injuries at about 9:04 a.m. on Route 2 eastbound in Westminster, police said. A 2004 Toyota Camry rear-ended a private dump trump working as a snow plow, sending the car's driver, a 20-year-old man from Gardner, to a local hospital; he was later flown to UMass Memorial in Worcester.
The car's speed and road conditions are believed to have contributed to the crash, but investigators were looking into what happened.
Earlier in the day, a vehicle rolled over on I-95 south in Foxborough, causing a lane to shut down, according to MassDOT.

While there was no immediate word on injuries, MassDOT said there was an entrapment and that the right lane was closed.
The crash scene was cleared shortly before 11 a.m.
As of 12 p.m., MassDOT remained in snow and ice resopnse, with over 2,100 pieces of equipment patrolling, spreading and plowing. The speed limit on the Massachusetts Turnpike remains reduced to 40 mph from Monson to Warren.
