Последствия пожара под мостом

kilativ — 13.06.2023

The northbound lanes of I-95 were gone and the southbound lanes were “compromised” by heat from the fire, said Derek Bowmer, battalion chief of the Philadelphia Fire Department. Runoff from the fire or perhaps broken gas lines caused explosions underground, he added.
Some kind of crash happened on a ramp underneath northbound I-95 around 6:15 a.m., said state Transportation Department spokesman Brad Rudolph, and the northbound section above the fire collapsed quickly. A massive concrete slab fell from I-95 onto the road below.
Gov. Josh Shapiro said his flight over the area showed “just remarkable devastation.”
“I found myself thanking the Lord that no motorists who were on I-95 were injured or died,” he said.
The collapsed section of I-95 was part of a $212 million reconstruction project that wrapped up four years ago, Rudolph said.
Motorists were sent on a 43-mile (69-kilometer) detour Sunday, which was going “better than it would do on a weekday,” Rudolph said. The fact that the collapse happened on a Sunday helped ease congestion.
Pennsylvania Transportation Secretary Michael Carroll said the I-95 segment carries roughly 160,000 vehicles per day and was likely the busiest interstate in Pennsylvania.
Shapiro said he had been spoken directly to U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and had been assured that there would be “absolutely no delay” in getting federal funds quickly to rebuild what he called a “critical roadway” as safely and efficiently as possible. But Shapiro he said the complete rebuild of I-95 would take “some number of months,” and in the meantime officials were looking at “interim solutions to connect both sides of I-95 to get traffic through the area.”
Отсюда
Там не только мост поврежден (обрушился один пролет, второй тоже нужно менять из за ущерба несущим конструкциям), там были подземные (!) взрывы, предположительно от поврежденных газовых труб. Причем, что примечательно, этот участок дороги только 4 года назад капитально отремонтировали за 212 миллионов. Теперь нужно ездить в объезд и это - 69 лишних километра. Нехило так. В Вашингтон из Нью Йорка теперь так просто не смотаешься. Еще пишут (не здесь, правда), что сколько времени займет ремонт - никому неизвестно. Похоже, что это на полгода как минимум
