TL;DR Summary

The collapse of an elevated portion of Interstate 95 in northeast Philadelphia has caused predictable snags and longer commute times for drivers. Gov. Josh Shapiro expects it to take months to rebuild the damaged section of the highway, which is used by about 160,000 vehicles a day. Federal, state, and local officials are investigating the cause of the fire and collapse. Commuters are adjusting to alternate routes and some have found their commutes to be less of a traffic nightmare than expected. The accident will mean "extensive disruption for the movement of people and goods through that region," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
