King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation announced today that Carver Street under Interstate 95 was closed permanently today in Northeast Philadelphia for construction of a new southbound ramp that will connect I-95 directly to Tacony Street at the relocated Carver Street underpass.

The ramp construction is part of PennDOT's $268 million I-95 Section BS2 project to reconstruct I-95 in both directions between Margaret Street and the relocated Carver Street.

Motorists will continue to have access to James Street from Tacony Street by using Fraley Street.

Motorists can check conditions on more than 40,000 roadway miles, including color-coded winter conditions, by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information and access to more than 1,000 traffic cameras.
