All lanes back open on I-95 NB in Del. before I-295, I-495 options
NEW CASTLE, Del. (WTXF) - DelDOT has announced all lanes are back open on I-95 northbound, nine hours after a tractor-trailer flipped just before the big split. That's where drivers can switch over onto I-295 north for the Delaware Memorial Bridge -- and I-495, the Wilmington bypass -- or stay on I-95 to get to Claymont, Chester and Philadelphia.
Still, commuters should expect heavy traffic. Authorities say drivers can expect a 15 to 20 minute delay from Route 896 to Exit 4 in that busy, often confusing area.
FOX 29's Bob Kelly reported there was also a fuel spill, so crews had to put down sand.
Police said the truck driver was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
