Where is the I-95 collapse? Where it happened and detours, alternate routes available

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro announced Saturday that the collapsed portion of Interstate 95 in Philadelphia will be reopened in the next two weeks on a heavily traveled section of Interstate 95 that collapsed earlier this month in Northeast Philadelphia.

"I can state with confidence that we will have I-95 reopened within the next two weeks. We are going to get traffic moving again thanks to the extraordinary work that is going on here,” Shapiro said.

A tanker truck caught fire under a section of I-95 just after 6 a.m. on June 11. The northbound section collapsed, but the southbound span has also been deemed unsafe, Philadelphia Office of Emergency Management officials said.

Congestion following I-95 collapse fell throughout last week

The collapse slowed commutes and travel through the area in the past week. Congestion peaked during the evening commute June 13, according to exclusive data from HERE, but traffic on most of the highways in the Philadelphia metro area returned to more common speeds and congestion by the end last week.

Where is I-95 located?

The nearly 1,917-mile interstate runs from Miami through Maine to Canada. Fifty-one of those miles are in the Philadelphia area where it runs parallel to the Delaware River.
