Gotten the message already you dont want to be on 95 in this area of croydon bucks county its an absolute mess. Theyre thinking maybe by 6 oclock they can get it reopened but i dont know. Looks like they still have some work to do. So, what do you do instead . Head over to route one, the super highway and boulevard. Then you can go to woodhaven road and from there get back on 95 or stay more local on roads like hulmeville road or 13 or state road but 95 remains closed both ways this morning in croydon bucks county. Luckily our other overnight work zones along 95 by cottman, the betsy ross bridge and the airport have all cleared out. Lets check our overnight zone on the schuylkill expressway. Gone here, too.

Coming southbound i would still avoid 95 northbound. Things are clearing up.
