URGENT ALERT!!! 76 EB has all lanes CLOSED approaching the Gulph Mills exit - heavy rains have dumped so much water on the roadway that it comes up almost to the top of the concrete median! From King of Prussia try the
@PA_Turnpike
to Mid-County
@KYWNewsradio
URGENT ALERT! The deluge of rain in the Conshohocken area has flooded the ramp from 476 SB to 76 EB - traffic barely getting by on the shoulder
@KYWNewsradio
@GovernorShapiro
Thank you, Governor! Is there anyway to get the other PennDot cameras fixed on the 1-95 corridor near the accident site? Surrounding cameras in that area have been out for some time and it would be very helpful to the public if they were working properly. Thank you!
UPDATE: A current look at I-95 at Cottman - you can see drivers are having little difficulty navigating the new roadway. Though speeds SHOULD be reduced, it doesn't appear that many are heeding that warning
@KYWNewsradio
Platt Bridge eastbound jammed across the span into south Philly with the Navy midshipmen running their football to the Linc!

76 EB UPDATE: These poor guys drew the short straw and are hip-deep in the flood waters before Gulph Mills trying to clear a storm drain to get rid of all that water! Plenty of other flooding in a 10 mile radius, so BE CAREFUL! Or better yet, STAY HOME!

⚠️ ACCIDENT ⚠️
🔥 VEHICLE FIRE 🔥
Vehicle explodes twice.
95 southbound, south of Woodhaven, a vehicle fire and accident - ALL LANES ARE BLOCKED.

MAJOR ALERT! The Tacony Palmyra Bridge is closed until further notice, as it has malfunctioned. No ETA as to when it might reopen, use the Burlington Bristol Bridge as an alternate (photo courtesy of )

@KYWNewsradio
76 EB FLOOD UPDATE:
@PAStatePolice
had briefly opened lanes to get some traffic through, but now it seems the rains have started again; all lanes are once again closed between King of Prussia and Gulph Mills
@KYWNewsradio
95 will begin the reopening process today at noon
First the crews will reopen the SB lanes, this process will take about an hour to reopen the SB lanes
Crews need to remove over 3 miles of cones and then uncover signs they put in place last night warning drivers of the chenges
Flooding has shut down the westbound Schuylkill Expressway at King Of Prussia. This is a very dangerous situation as the highway is completely under water. All traffic being forced off the RT 202.
@KYWNewsradio
URGENT!!! 76 WB is closed approaching Montgomery because of this fully-involved car fire.
@PAStatePolice
are holding traffic back to allow
@PhillyFireDept

@KYWNewsradio
The moment that the first drivers were escorted across the repaired section of I-95 SB past the Cottman Ave exit. We're waiting for crews to reopen NB 95 - not expected now until between 1:30 & 2:00 PM
@KYWNewsradio
@tmabucks
STORM UPDATE: Here is a view on I-476 at St Davids/Villanova... SB traffic cruising along, but NB at a crawl because of flooding reported about a mile north of here. Plus you can see some rain starting again even though the SUN is out! 😳
@KYWNewsradio
I-95 COLLAPSE UPDATE: SB traffic is detoured off the highway at Academy Rd. But the best alternate would be - exit before here at Woodhaven Rd, take that WB to Rt 1 SB, continue until you merge with 76 EB & continue towards Philadelphia or points to the south
@KYWNewsradio
Latest look at 95 NB at Cottman - nothing new, just an eerie empty roadway. Drivers on 95 NB forced off at Aramingo are struggling to find their way through. Best bet is to take Aramingo to Harbison to the Blvd NB to Woodhaven to get around it.
@KYWNewsradio
Here's a classic example of why you should not tailgate while driving... here at midspan, high above the ground on the Platt Bridge EB heading away from

Due to the PA Renaissance Faire being held from 11am-8pm, motorists will encounter slow/stopped traffic approaching on I-76 at the Lebanon-Lancaster Exit
#266
. Renaissance Faire Traffic should keep right approaching the exit and be prepared for stopped traffic. Thru-traffic
Preps continue to stripe the temp crossing at Cottman Ave. The
@PoconoRaceway
jet dryer can be seen at the bottom of the screen along with another vehicle from the track. The dryer will allow they crews to get a time window to stripe the roadway.

A thank you for letting us share this video to Atlanta sportscaster Alison, who's originally from our area. This was near the scene of the road closure on 95 NB at the Commodore Barry Bridge, showing how nothing was moving in both directions about an hour ago
@KYWNewsradio
The closure on 95 in Northeast Philadelphia has all traffic forced to exit the highway at Aramingo Ave. From there, the best (if not fastest) way around this is to continue to Harbison, take that to the Roosevelt Blvd NB to Woodhaven Rd WB to return to I-95.
@KYWNewsradio
😳
URGENT ALERT! In Montgomery County a severe thunderstorm with tornadic potential is dumping huge amounts of rain around the
@PA_Turnpike
& Rt 309, seen here just south of the Turnpike interchange at Ft Washington. If you see ponding, don't try to drive through it!
@KYWNewsradio
UPDATE ON I-95 COLLAPSE
95 NB closed between Aramingo Ave & Academy Rd
95 SB detoured at the Cottman exit which takes you to Bleigh Ave and you are forced to New State Rd and back on SB at the Longshore Ave & State Rd on ramp

weeks due to a massive tractor trailer fire.
@KYWNewsradio
**UPDATE** with the winter storm approaching, this loveseat on the left shoulder of 95 southbound approaching Woodhaven, will get one more washing, and even closer yet, to pristine condition for one lucky couple... (cushions included)
Good Evening, Philadelphia! Not a starry sky in sight, but the lights of the city are sure beautiful! Happy to be bringing you the latest in traffic conditions tonight! This shot is from the Ben Franklin looking west into the city.
@KYWTraffic1060
GOOD NEWS!!! We are now on the FM dial at 103.9 and are clear as a bell all over the Delaware Valley!
The bad news ls that the roads are a mess with flooding and spin outs!
Watch out for standing water and slick roads due to scattered storms and clogged drains
@KYWNewsradio

Pretty much every day (in normal times) you'd hear about some kind of accident or delay at the Conshohocken Curve.

So if you ordered furniture today and the delivery was missing a chair, this may be it on 76EB near Montgomery in the left lane. Its being moved to the scratch & dent section.
We in the traffic center have located the ever elusive species, the napping tractor trailer. The shady spot along the on-ramp is its favorite place to sleep. This one is on the 76EB on-ramp from Matsonford Rd in

While it has been a rough morning on the local roads, just a reminder that peace and tranquility aren't far away as we look at the

I thought this was a broken down limo on 76 WB - turns out to be a group of 20-something boys dumping trash & liquids off into the woods below. Hopefully

@KYWNewsradio
ICYMI - this was a few hours ago when a late model sedan broke down past Allegheny Ave in the right lane... Is that his backup car? Or are they making Mini Coopers even smaller?
