The fire was so big it had overtaken both northbound and southbound lanes on the highway, witness Lisa Taormino, who was commuting southbound on I-95 about 20 minutes before it collapsed, told ABC News.
Mark Fusetti, a retired Philadelphia police sergeant, said he was driving south toward the city's airport when he noticed thick plumes of black smoke rising over the highway.
He saw traffic in his rearview mirror come to a halt. Soon after, the northbound lanes of the highway crumbled. During a press conference on Sunday, Pennsylvania Governor Josh 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."
