Ross Bridge Interchanges in Philadelphia

11/3/2017-KING OF PRUSSIA

Motorists on Interstate 95 in Philadelphia will encounter lane and ramp
restrictions next week at the Girard Avenue and Betsy Ross Bridge/Aramingo
Avenue interchanges for construction, the Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

The work schedule is:

• Monday, November 6, from 10:00 PM to 5:00 AM, a double lane closure is
scheduled on northbound I-95 at the Girard Avenue Interchange for overhead
sign
structure installation. The operation will reduce northbound I-95 to a
single
through lane between the Girard Avenue and Allegheny Avenue interchanges;

• Tuesday, November 7, and Wednesday, November 8, from 8:00 PM to 5:00 AM,
the
right lane is scheduled to close on southbound I-95 at the Betsy Ross
Bridge/Aramingo Avenue Interchange for removal of an overhead sign
structure;
and

• Tuesday, November 7, and Wednesday, November 8, from 8:00 PM to 5:00 AM,
a
single lane closure is planned on the ramp from northbound I-95 to the
Betsy
Ross Bridge for sign structure installation.

In addition to the travel restrictions on mainline I-95, Girard Avenue will
be
closed between Fletcher Street and Richmond Street, on Monday, November 6,
and
Tuesday, November 7, from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM for demolition of the inside
section of the old northbound I-95 viaduct at the Girard Avenue
Interchange.

Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling on I-95 and Girard
Avenue near the work areas. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

The activities are part of the $160.2 million project to rebuild ramps and
improve connections between I-95, the Betsy Ross Bridge and Aramingo
Avenue,
and the $211.7 million project to rebuild and widen 1.5 miles of northbound

I-95 from the Girard Avenue to the Allegheny Avenue interchanges.
