PennDOT - District 6 News: Surveying Scheduled on Interstate 95 South in Northeast Philadelphia

An update has been published to District 6 News on the PennDOT website. Please see below for details.

PennDOT - District 6 News

Surveying Scheduled on Interstate 95 South in Northeast Philadelphia

Surveying Scheduled Next Week on Interstate 95 South in Northeast Philadelphia

Philadelphia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that surveying operations are planned next week on southbound I-95 in Northeast Philadelphia.

Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:

• Tuesday, January 7, and Wednesday, January 8, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, a left lane closure will be in place on southbound I-95 between the Aramingo Avenue and Columbus Boulevard interchanges.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because significant backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

The surveying is part of the design phase for PennDOT's upcoming I-95/GR6 project that will reconstruct southbound I-95 and its structures between Frankford Avenue and Race Street. Section GR6 is scheduled for construction in 2026.

Motorists can check conditions on major roadways including color-coded winter conditions, by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information, and access to more than 1,000 traffic cameras. 511PA is also available through a smartphone application for iPhone and Android devices, by calling 5-1-1, or by following regional X alerts.
