Will the f—ing construction on I-95 ever end?!

Any Philly driver knows traffic on I-95 is frustrating. Will the construction contributing to it ever end? The short answer: Not anytime soon. PennDOT's I-95 Revive project is considered one of the nation's more ambitious urban highway reconstruction efforts. The agency says the estimated finish date, from I-676 through South Philly, is 2055. So, how much does this project cost? Does highway widening actually work? And why was I-95 built in the first place? Inquirer transportation reporter Tom Fitzgerald answers some FAQs about the f—ing construction on I-95.
