After a crash that collapsed a portion of I-95 in Northeast Philly, the reconstructed highway is set to reopen temporary lanes Friday.
"The walls were on fire. You couldn’t walk anywhere. It was crazy," Milly Houston described the aftermath of the crash.
Houston was driving behind the gas tanker when it exploded June 11th. After seeing the damage left behind, she’s shocked to see the highway open Friday. "Actually really surprised, because it was really damaged. But, I hope they know what they are doing." The blistering fast speed of construction has many drivers glad that it’s reopening, though some drivers have reservations about using the reconstructed section.Holmesburg resident Kim Elwell added, "They took two weeks to do that. I don’t know. I don’t trust it. I’ll wait for everybody else to go first."
