King of Prussia PA – Motorists will encounter lane restrictions on Interstate 95 and Castor Avenue in Philadelphia for bridge inspections, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

The work schedules and locations are:

• Monday, January 24, from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, a right lane closure is scheduled on northbound I-95 between the Interstate 676 (Vine Street Expressway) and the Girard Avenue interchanges;
• Monday, January 24, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, a left lane closure is scheduled on southbound I-95 between the Betsy Ross Bridge/Aramingo Avenue and the I-676 (Vine Street Expressway) interchanges;

• Friday, January 29, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, a lane closure is scheduled on Castor Avenue between Wingohocking Street and Wyoming Avenue.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work areas because slowdowns may occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

The inspections are part of PennDOT's program to inspect bridges at least once every two years. The inspections ensure the safety and overall condition of the structures.
