A tractor trailer unit pulling a propane tanker became stuck on the snowy shoulder of Interstate 293 north on the Manchester-Hooksett line Wednesday, causing traffic delays and requiring extensive rerouting of northbound and southbound traffic for at least several hours.

Authorities asked drivers to seek alternate routes.

Police evacuated people living in several Front Street homes and in the Stonyview Way Condominium complex as a precaution. They were allowed back into their homes around 2 p.m.
