that's an aerial view of I-95 SB from around Girard Ave (roughly here). on the left is the Ben Franklin Bridge (I-676/US 30). the orange BGSs were some of (if not THE) first APLs on I-95 in PA; they're advance (construction) signage for Exit 22.

Per GSV, it was removed between Oct 2014 & Jul 2015. It was never replaced in this location.

There is 100% new Signage in the area on 95 SB Ill try to grab some pictures.

They have opened all lanes on NB & SB 95, I have to say they did good on this project especially with the NB Girard exit; that extra wide lane that doesn't end gives you plenty of time to get up to speed & merge.

They also have updated the lights to LED on both sides now.

So far this project has been a success, the only real slowdown in the area is around the Bridge St exit which is currently under heavy construction and around the Cottman Exit which is also under heavy construction to widen it & that is I would say about 50% complete now that the Bridge beams are in for the NB side (SB side is complete).

Also in other news 95 from the Delaware line all the way to Exit 9A/B is or has been repaved in both directions as we speak.

The 95 Project in Chester replacing the Middle barrier wall, repairing bridges, the railroad and repaving are all completed.

This area is really looking good and it was past due maintenance needed for the whole area. The next big project that should really be on the menu for Penndot and the City of Philly should be landscaping, lighting and a welcome sign to Philadelphia by the Airport this would seriously boost the look and first welcome for people coming into the city I'm not sure why this isn't pushed as curb appeal is important.

Well for those hoping to finish clinching PA 611 during the Philly Meet, the part of Broad St being closed is actually south of where PA 611 ends So you are good.
