Police Block Off-Ramp as Eagles Traffic Backs Up Along Interstate 95

Going to the Eagles game? You’re not alone.

Philadelphia Police closed the exit from Interstate 95 to S Broad Street (Exit 17) before noon Sunday due to the large amount of cars trying to get to the Eagles home opener at Lincoln Financial Field.

Police could be seen along I-95 north blocking the off-ramp for about 45 minutes.

Exiting traffic was diverted to the Packer Avenue off-ramp (Exit 19).

In an attempt to promote people riding public transit to the game, Miller Lite teamed up with SEPTA to offer free rides on the Broad Street Line subway but that didn't stop people from driving.
