some of the structures are still upright, they're working to get that elevated broadcast booth right there taken down. you can hear the hammers pounding away but these crews have been working around the clock and it appears they have a couple days left. the sounds of blowers, and street sweepers echoed down the parkway this afternoon as crews began disassembling the papal infrastructure. >> should take us four days to get it down and if the weather holds out it should work out. >> reporter: roughly 500 stage hands and other crews will take up the floor boards and bring down the main stage and production facilities. for many of them it's been a busy two weeks. >> the most guys we ever had on one site and it was also the most i guess prestigious thing i ever did. >> reporter: feels good. >> yeah, finally. glad i was part of it. >> reporter: those who live on the parkway awoke to a much different scene. gone were road blocks and much of the trash left behind was cleared, a welcome sight for those looking to get their

neighborhood back. >> glad it was done so quickly so efficiently. by 10:30 the street was finally cleared and opened. >> looks pretty great to the point that i'm going to work now because it's not that bad, so i think they did a great job cleaning everything up. >> reporter: when the parkway will reopen is still unclear. mayor michael nutter couldn't put a time on it but said crews are working around the clock to make it happen. >> as i'm sure all of you saw or experienced there was a lot of infrastructure out along the ben franklin parkway. it does take some time to get all of that back in its place and get it cleaned up. >> reporter: and if you're going to be heading down here the parkway basically is shut down from 21st to eakins oval. again, when the parkway will reopen is unclear at this time. i'm live along the ben franklin parkway, chad pradelli, channel6 "action news." >> all right, they're getting there, chad. thanks very much. now a live look at independence mall where crews

also are busy cleaning up today but what a different scene there. you can hardly see any signs of yesterday's papal mass on independence mall. meanwhile the archdiocese of philadelphia is reacting to and reflecting on this past weekend. archbishop charles chaput and others held a news conference this afternoon. vernon odom was there. he's live at the archdiocesan headquarters in center city. vernon i imagine they're taking a bit of a victory lap. >> reporter: they're trying to, brian. by most accounts, the record breaking world meeting of families and the post bombshell visit over the weekend are a source of pride and success but indeed there are critics: as he met with reporters today, philadelphia archbishop hailed the city's overall hailing of the pope's visit and said he felt a deep disappointment of ticket holder whose never got into the parkway mass yesterday because of tight security measures but he was on the defensive as reporters questioned the pope's sincerity after he left with

five local victims of clergy sexual abuse hearing their stories and apologizing later condemning the pedophile priests as he met with hundreds of bishops from around the globe. >> it wasn't a publicity stunt. there was a genuine interest on the part of the holy father to represent the whole church in expressing sadness and apology in cases where there was sexual abuse by members of the church and he sincerely meant that. >> reporter: the archbishop emphasized it was the federal government calling the shots on the metal detectors and searches that prevented thousands of ticket holders from getting into the parkway mass on time. >> i don't criticize but if we had it our way it would have been simpler but our way might not have been the best way because it might have led to disaster. >> reporter: sharrie, the secret service is taking the heat for all the added security this past weekend but they don't care. top police brass sources tell me they didn't buy into it

either but they had no choice but to go along with it. live in center city, i'm vernon odom, channel6 "action news." >> all right, vernon they had adopted it. that's their perspective. septa is getting back to its normal schedule today. officials there gave us their final tally on the number of people they moved through philadelphia this weekend. nearly 29,000 passengers used regional rail on saturday. 34,000 passengers used regional rail sunday. septa said it also moved more than 40,000 passengers on the broad street line to south philadelphia after the papal mass to get them to parking lots set up by the world meeting of families. >> and so far it's thought that an estimated 900,000 people came to philadelphia for the papal visit but still small businesses tell us they suffered this past weekend. case in point de nick's at reading terminal market tweeting this. never before seen, no line at at 2:30 in the afternoon on a

saturday. at one point the famous sandwich shop posted this is picture saying "if you can get to the reading terminal by 7:00 p.m., you can have all of this bread. help us feel better about this. sad state of affairs for them and other businesses offering deep discounts just to get people in the door. and then celebrated philadelphia chef and james beard award winner mark vetri writing a pretty raw facebook post saying philadelphia officials got it all wrong and cost people a lot of money. he says "instead of engaging the citizen and businesses around this great city in welcoming the pope they have instead decided to roll out the red carpet for everyone making the pilgrimage and roll us up in the carpet to place in storage until monday. today mayor michael nutter firing back. >> this was never billed as, you know, a huge economic impact event or the big money maker. what we said was going back to literally the first question

based on previous experience there could be a million to a million and a half people here. i don't know the spending habits of pilgrims. we've never had this kind of event here. you know, in the city. what i will say is if there were a million or so folks or, you know, excessive hundreds of thousands of folks here, i mean, they had to eat somewhere. i mean, i don't know. >> then he goes on to say that as far as he knows many of our businesses aren't typically opened on the weekends so why should they see a difference in traffic. david henry will have more on the economic impact and also response from the mayor coming up on "action news" at 5:00. and don't forget, you can relive the pope's historic visit to philadelphia on 6abc.com from his parades through the city to the festival of families, to his mass on the ben franklin parkway, check out the dozens of photos from the scene and videos from our nonstop coverage on "action news." brian and sharrie, we are

prussia and it set off a chain of crashes and eventually caused her car to flip over. chopper six was over the scene just after 12:30 on mall boulevard. police say the woman told them she he could not get the car to stop and that sent her crashing into several vehicles and a pole. she eventually hit the side of the fairfield inn damaging the building and knocking over trees. the good news there, no one was injured. >> now to the "action news" traffic report. as things are beginning to get back to normal around the region this afternoon. >> yes, slowly. let's go live to matt pelman in the "action news" traffic center. hi, matt. >> hey, guys. nobody is more tired of talking about papal closures than this guy right here. but give me just a couple more days and we should have everything reopened. for now we're still looking live at the ben franklin parkway, a couple tents still up, police still blocking off the parkway as you can see and as chad was telling us basically between 21st street and eakins oval the parkway is shut down. this hasn't been so

problematic today because i think so many people took the day off or were given the day off from work. it's going to prove more problematic tomorrow as more people head back to work and people that normally go down the parkway possible to get to the river drives will have a hard time. for now ben franklin parkway does remain shut down as do some of the adjacent streets. on the big picture though overall volume is pretty light this afternoon. we have had a few accidents, one in holmesburg along frankford at solly involving a bus. had one along allegheny involving a motorcycle but that's clear. on the main line in wynnewood watch out for one along lancaster avenue a at wood win road. in wilmington watch out for app downed pole shutting down northeast boulevard this afternoon between 28th and 30th. stick with market street, business 13 as an alternate. let's grab that ipad do the commuter report on this monday afternoon. not exactly a normal monday as a lot of people still have off

a whole lot, only two of the last 48 days we've seen more than a tenth of an inch of rainfall. one of those days august 10th we had .13-inches. and september 10th with 4 points 75 and looks like we have several opportunities for more precipitation on the way. here's satellite6 along with action radar. a fair amount of cloud cover overhead. there's a weak cold front off to our north and west moving across the upper midwest dropping across that region. then we have this area of low pressure, this area of tropical moisture out across the gulf of mexico and also some moisture out along the atlantic which is tropical depression 11 and those will impact our weather as we go throughout the week ahead. first we're tracking some spotty activity. future tracker6 showing you 2:30 tomorrow afternoon with that tropical moisture, an area of precipitation that we're tracking coming out of the gulf of mexico some spotty activity as we go throughout the afternoon hours but it looks like the heaviest of that rainfall moves in as we

get into tuesday afternoon and into tuesday night and this will linger as we go throughout the day on wednesday. so, as far as expected rainfall, tomorrow night into wednesday, we're calling for one to 2 inches of rain but looks like we could have locally higher amounts than that especially north and west of philadelphia. and then tropical satellite showing you tropical depression 11 moving at about 35 miles per hour to the west-northwest and this will more than likely impact us as we get into late friday noon saturday. still up in the air as to where that moisture will happen but it does look like we're tracking two rounds of rain this week. the four day at 4:00 showing you it's humid tomorrow an afternoon shower is likely, spotty in nature. 83 its a wet day on wednesday, windy, too, a high of 74 and much cooler as we get into thursday and friday with periods of rain that we will be tracking, guys, so definitely a soggy week ahead. >> all right. we need it. >> we need it. >> yes, we do. >> you agree. >> no complaints. >> melissa, thanks. still ahead, a local worker injured on a tower
