I-95 South Reconstruction Completed, New Traffic Pattern Planned This Week for Final Stage of BS1 Contract at Bridge Street
King of Prussia, PA - The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that southbound Interstate 95 reconstruction between Levick Street and Carver Street (Section BS1) will finish this week as work shifts to the median for the final stage of reconstruction at the northern end of the Bridge Street Interchange in Philadelphia.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
- Wednesday, November 16, through Friday, November 18, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, southbound I-95 will be reduced to one lane between the Cottman Avenue and Bridge Street interchanges for crews to relocate barrier and repaint lane markings to set a new traffic pattern.
Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area or use an alternate route because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
The new traffic pattern will move three lanes of southbound vehicles to the outer lanes and shoulder. Three lanes of northbound I-95 traffic will remain in the current pattern on the rebuilt northbound side. The new traffic pattern for Stage 5 construction is expected to be fully in place by Friday evening, November 18. When Stage 5 construction finishes on the $80.9 million project in spring 2023, mainline reconstruction at the southern end of the Bridge Street Interchange (Section BS2) is expected to begin.
