A combination of NASCAR equipment, recycled glass and police escorts helped reopen the repaired portion of I-95 in Philadelphia way ahead of schedule.
Six lanes reopened to motorists at noon on Friday, 12 days after a bridge collapsed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro announced. The collapsed section was a headache to commuters, causing major congestion in traffic. The primary detour was about 23 miles using state or interstate roads, local transportation officials previously said. Three new lanes opened in both directions of the interstate, the governor’s office said.
Workers were applying the paint right after they finished paving the roadway thanks to the dryer, Carroll said. “It dawned on me that in traditional roadway construction, you just wait till that sunny day. We didn’t want to wait until the next day. We wanted to do it immediately,” Carroll said. The dryers are used on NASCAR tracks because the race car tires are not treaded, making a dry track essential.
