Governor announces reopening of collapsed portion of I-95 in Philadelphia.
TL;DR
Temporary lanes on I-95 in Pennsylvania will reopen this weekend, ahead of the originally projected two-week timeline, after a collapse left the major infrastructure hub impassable. The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is using recycled glass aggregate to fill the damaged section, and the overall cost of the project is estimated to be between $25 and $30 million. U.S. Senators Bob Casey and John Fetterman, along with U.S. Rep. Brendan Boyle, have announced $3 million in federal emergency funding directed to PennDOT to assist with repairs.
