crash_reports: 1900000737

Operator of MV1 was originally attempting to make a delivery to Stop & Shop on Needham Street but could not because the road was closed due to a water main break. The operator then continued (SB) on Winchester Street and took a left on to Rachel Road attempting to turn around using his gps. He then turned left on to Upland Avenue which ends up being a dead end or you can travel up Druid Hill Road. He then attempted to turn the tractor trailer around because he did not want to continue through the residential neighborhood. Somewhere in the process, his truck and semi trailer got caught up in low hanging utility wires. The wires then got pulled down and it split Verizon utility pole 740 in half. This pole is in front of 337 Upland Avenue and it also pulled down the electrical service attached to that residence. These wires run to Verizon utility pole # 1001/7 in front of 66 Druid Hill Road. No damage observed to this pole. There also appeared to be no damage to the truck/semi trailer.
