SEPTA buses were snarled in Manayunk Thursday morning thanks to the snow, as a tractor trailer reportedly lost traction and caused buses to back up and send riders to the streets.
6ABC reports the truck lost traction on the 5200 block of Ridge Avenue in Manayunk Thursday morning and not long after SEPTA buses were backed up behind it.
SEPTA shifted its operation schedule for several routes affected by the snow-related issues, but has since lifted the detours.
