Schuylkill Expressway WB back open after 2 separate crashes snarl traffic during morning commute

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Traffic is flowing again on the Schuylkill Expressway westbound after two separate crashes snarled traffic during the morning commute on Friday.

One crash involved a dump truck, and the other involved a semi-truck and another vehicle.



The crashes were on Interstate 76 WB between Exit 340A at Lincoln and Kelly Drive, and Exit 339 at US 1 South to City Avenue.

The crashes reduced traffic down to one lane for most of the morning.



Both crashes appear to have occurred in a work zone area on I-76.



Chopper 6 was overhead the second crash with the semi-truck, where crews could be seen working on a car that also appeared to have been involved. It is unclear if anyone was hurt or the extent of injuries.
