Comparing I-95 Collapses in Philadelphia and Atlanta: Recovery and Commuting Challenges Ahead.
TL;DR Summary
Engineers are working on a plan to rebuild the collapsed portion of I-95 in Philadelphia, which could take months due to the size of the damage. The collapse was caused by extreme heat, similar to the I-85 collapse in Atlanta six years ago. While the Pittsburgh bridge collapse took a year to rebuild, experts believe the I-95 repairs should not take as long. Governor Josh Shapiro is asking for more federal resources to speed up the process.
