    March 11, 2026

    Philadelphia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that construction activities will occur at night this week on northbound I-95 in Northeast Philadelphia.

    Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:

    All scheduled activities are weather permitting. Motorists are advised to allow extra time for traveling on northbound I-95 because backups and delays will occur.
