YORK — A construction worker was killed Tuesday morning on the Maine Turnpike when a dump truck backed over him at a job site, according to police.

Maine Department of Public Safety spokesman Stephen McCausland said the accident took place around 11:30 a.m. in a southbound lane by the York River Bridge, which had already been closed to traffic because of construction.

The man’s name will be released pending notification of his family, McCausland said.
