PHILADELPHIA – There's nothing like summertime traffic hassles, right?

If you live in Northeast Philly, Bucks County, or travel I-95 with frequency in that area, the next few weeks are going to be annoying

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) today announced that inlet repair work will begin next week on southbound I-95 near Academy Road in Northeast Philadelphia.

From Monday, June 23 through Friday, July 11, a weekday left lane closure will be in place from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM on southbound on the highway between the Bucks County Line and the Academy Road Interchange.

Motorists should expect delays and are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the area. All construction activities are weather dependent.
