The collapse of a section of interstate in Philadelphia is expected to cause traffic headaches for weeks. And why getting "duped" isn't actually a bad thing. |
👋 Hey! Laura Davis here. Let's get you caught up on Monday's news. |
Extensive repairs needed after I-95 collapse in Philadelphia |
Commuters faced delays in the Northeast on Monday after a crash caused a massive inferno under Interstate 95 in Philadelphia, sending a portion of the major highway crashing down over the weekend. Crews have been working around the clock to remove debris road since a commercial truck carrying a petroleum-based product caught fire under an overpass Sunday morning. The northbound section collapsed, but the southbound span has also been deemed unsafe, officials said. The mess is expected to make commuting and travel through the area a headache for weeks to come. 👉 Here's what we know. | The collapsed portion of I-95 in Northeast Philadelphia, PA, is shown Sunday afternoon.

Students struggling to concentrate. A principal scrambling to find a substitute. Teachers stretched thin. More than three years after the COVID outbreak began, some children are thriving, but many others remain severely behind. The students are missing class, struggling to read or do math and can hardly sit still after years of shape-shifting school days. This reality means recovering from COVID could be more time-consuming and difficult than educators anticipated.
