The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced that regional bridge repairs will continue at night next week on the I-95 Girard Point Bridge in Philadelphia under a bridge improvement project to perform high-priority repairs on several structures on interstates across the region.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
Wednesday, April 24, through Friday, April 26, from 7:30 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, lane closures are scheduled on the northbound and southbound deck on the I-95 Girard Point Bridge between Penrose Avenue (Route 291) and Broad Street (Route 611)
Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
Repairs to the structures under this project include replacing rocker bearings, frozen sliding plate bearings and deck expansion joints; cleaning and painting steel beams; repairing substructure concrete; and reconstructing bearing pedestals.
The project also includes the replacement of high mast light poles along the I-95 corridor in Philadelphia and Delaware counties.
