Video from Chopper 6 showed the overpass carrying the northbound lanes of the highway were reduced to rubble.
One of those videos was taken by Lisa Taormino of Langhorne, Pa. She said she was on her way to work and, by the time she realized the smoke and flames were on the highway, it was too late."You can see flames coming up on the right hand side through all this black smoke... and the left hand side was worse," she said. "But the car in front of me really dipped down far."
"It was crazy timing," Fusetti said. "For it to buckle and collapse that quickly, it's pretty remarkable." The collapse will have "significant impacts" on the city and region until reconstruction is complete, Buttigieg wrote in a later tweet. "The I-95 corridor is a vital connection for people and goods traveling along the East Coast, and FHWA has offered support and assistance to state and local officials to help them safely reopen this section of I-95 as quickly as possible," a spokesperson said in a statement.
SEPTA officials stated on Sunday that extra capacity will be added to its services following the highway's collapse.
