STATUS (1.12)
The I-95/BSR project is being developed as three separate phases, or Sectrions: BS0, BS2 and BS3.

An Environmental Clearance for the entire project (BS0, BS2, BS3) was approved in July 2011, and the Preliminary Engineering stage of project development was completed in Fall 2011. The Final Design stage for Section BS0 began in September 2011. During Final Design, the conceptual plans that were developed during the preliminary phase will be advanced to a final level of detail, construction specifications will be drawn up, permits will be secured and construction funding will be allocated.

Under BS0, PennDOT will reconstruct Aramingo Avenue and the Adams Avenue ramps. This work will take place with the reconfiguration/reconstruction of the Betsy Ross interchange ramps  This first construction phase is anticipated to commence in early 2014 and last approximately four years. Construction on Section BS0 is anticipated to begin in 2014 and take approximately four years to complete. The subsequent sections of BSR will include mainline reconstruction and will follow the first section.
