I-95 Overnight Lane Closures Next Week for Sign Maintenance in Philadelphia
King of Prussia, PA – Overnight lane closures are scheduled next week in both directions on Interstate 95 in Philadelphia on Wednesday, December 9, and Thursday, December 10, from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM for large sign structure maintenance, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.
The work locations are:
- Northbound I-95 between the Route 611 North/Broad Street and Columbus Boulevard interchanges; and
- Southbound I-95 between I-676 (Vine Street Expressway) and Columbus Boulevard interchanges.
Motorists are advised to use caution when traveling through the work areas because backups and slowdowns may occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
Under this improvement project, PennDOT is replacing and repairing large sign structures, including overhead signs throughout Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia counties.
