Gaper Delay Over Geese Walking Along Schuylkill Expressway

It wasn’t your normal traffic jam along the Schuylkill Expressway Tuesday morning.

A group of about one dozen Canadian geese along the roadway caused traffic to slow in both directions near Gladwyne in Montgomery County around 9 a.m. Police could be seen blocking lanes on I-76 to protect the birds, which left the roadway after a short period of time.

Even once the geese were gone traffic delays remained as traffic slowed to an average around 20 mph.
