The I-95 CAP project at Penn’s Landing in Philadelphia will transform the city's landscape by improving connections between center city neighborhoods and the waterfront. The project, a partnership between PennDOT, the City of Philadelphia, and the Delaware River Waterfront Commission, includes expanding the covered section of I-95, creating new streetscape and trail connections, and constructing an 80-foot high tied arch bridge to extend the South Street Pedestrian Bridge into Marina Basin.

This presentation covers the comprehensive planning, data collection, traffic analysis, and agency coordination essential for the design framework of the I-95 project. It will review traffic signal and streetscape changes to improve traffic calming and ensure safe pedestrian and bike access. Additionally, it will detail the new advanced traffic management system (ATMS) to be implemented on I-95. Finally, it will discuss work zone alternatives and the comprehensive traffic management plan (TMP) designed to manage transportation, mitigate congestion, and ensure safety during construction, including the logistics of implementing a detour on one of Pennsylvania’s busiest roadways.

This presentation will provide participants with:

1.      A multi-modal approach to roadway design that enhances safety for all users.

2.      A holistic understanding of the planning, data collection, and traffic modeling for a complex project.

3.      An overview of the Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) to be implemented on I-95 as part of this project.

4.      A practical application of PennDOT’s Origin & Destination Data for project analysis and detour planning.

5.      The elements of a Traffic Management Plan (TMP) for a complex urban project.

6.      An overview of PennDOT’s Regional Traffic Management Center and its involvement during construction.

7.      The details of executing the demolition of the existing large cap structures over I-95 in two weekend.
