Philadelphia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that overhead sign installation is planned next week on Interstate 95 in Philadelphia. A section of Tacony Street will also close this Saturday for I-95 bridge construction.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restrictions:
- Saturday, November 16, from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM, Tacony Street will be closed between Aramingo Avenue and Bridge Street for overhead bridge construction. During the closure, motorists will be directed to use Harbison Avenue and Bridge Street.
- Monday, November 18, through Friday, November 22, from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM, a right lane closure is planned on northbound I-95 between the Cottman Avenue and Betsy Ross Bridge interchanges.
- Monday, November 18, and Tuesday, November 19, from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, the ramp from Columbus Boulevard to northbound I-95 will be closed and a left lane closure will be in place on northbound I-95 between the Columbus Boulevard and I-676 interchanges for barrier installation. During the ramp closure, motorists will be directed north on Columbus Boulevard to the northbound I-95 on-ramp at Summer Street.
