Governor Josh Shapiro visited High Steel Structures in Lancaster to highlight the work Pennsylvania-based companies are doing on the new I-95 overpass in northeast Philadelphia. High Steel Structures - using steel from the Cleveland Cliffs facility in Coatesville - is forging the steel beams that will be used to build the new bridge over Cottman Avenue on I-95 and today hosted a "beam signing" ceremony as they completed the first steel girder and crossbeam.Since the initial I-95 collapse in June, Governor Shapiro led a coordinated state, local, and federal response with the private sector to reopen the roadway safely and as quickly as possible and completed efforts to get traffic flowing on I-95 again in just 12 days - well ahead of schedule.
