Philadelphia traffic is now flowing on freshly painted lanes after construction crews rebuilt a collapsed section.

The damaged portion of Interstate 95 in Philadelphia was reopened ahead of schedule Friday, less than two weeks after a deadly collapse shut down the major East Coast thoroughfare and caused chaos for commuters.

Workers put the finishing touches on six temporary lanes that will serve motorists during construction of a permanent bridge.

“This was a moment of civic pride for Philly and Pennsylvania. We all came together and we proved that we could do big things again in Pennsylvania,” Gov. Josh Shapiro said Friday at a news conference at the site.

After he spoke, a procession of fire engines — one carrying Philadelphia's pro sports mascots — and police vehicles crossed the northbound lanes of I-95, opening the new roadway as construction workers in hard hats looked on.
