A multi-vehicle crash on Interstate 95 in Philadelphia's Port Richmond neighborhood early Sunday morning resulted in the deaths of two people and caused significant traffic disruptions. The crash, involving at least four vehicles, occurred just after 3:30 a.m. near Bridge Street, prompting authorities to close I-95 in both directions between the Betsy Ross Bridge and Cottman Avenue for several hours. The northbound lanes near Northwest 151st Street in Northwest Miami-Dade were also shut down for an investigation. Traffic was diverted, and motorists were advised to seek alternate routes and expect delays. The northbound lanes in Port Richmond reopened later in the day, although officials had not yet provided further details on the incident. Additionally, a stretch of I-95 south in Philadelphia will close overnight this week for construction on PennDOT's CAP project.
