In your Vagrantfile, add the following -

{
    "PROVISION_PARAMS" => "some_default_values",
}.each { |key, value| ENV[key] = value if ENV[key] == nil }
  

These arguments can now be passed to shell script provisioner in the following way -

config.vm.provision :shell, privileged: true, run: "always",
                            :path => "../../scripts/script.ps1", 
                            :args => ENV['PROVISION_PARAMS']

You can now provide command line arguments to this script in the following manner -

$ PROVISION_PARAMS=' param1 param2 "param 3" ' vagrant provision

And the script will take default values if these parameters are not specified.
