Route 202 Crash Slows Traffic, Hurts 3

A crash closed lanes of a major Delaware County road and landed three in the hospital this morning.

The three-vehicle wreck in the northbound lanes of Wilmington West Chester Pike (U.S. Route 202) closed the inner lanes of the roadway in both directions just south of Baltimore Pike (U.S. Route 1) in Glen Mills, Pa. around 9:15 a.m. Tuesday.

Three people suffered moderate injuries. Two victims were taken to Crozer-Chester Medical Center while the other was taken to Riddle Hospital, according to police.

Only one lane got by in both directions as crews tended to a disabled car while loading a sports utility vehicle onto the back of a tow truck.

This crash came just hours after another bad Delaware County crash. That wreck snarled traffic along the Blue Route (I-476) northbound during the morning rush Tuesday.
