in Philadelphia occurred after a tanker truck carrying 8,500 gallons of gas to a local Wawa failed to make a turn and flipped on its side, triggering a massive fire, officials said Monday.
US Sen. Bob Casey Jr. and Rep. Brendan Boyle , who represents the Philadelphia area, told reporters Monday that they remain in touch with the US Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration to secure federal funds to pay for the reconstruction. “I-95 stretches from Maine to Miami,” he noted. “I dare you to find a more densely populated 40- to 50-mile area around I-95 than right here where we’re standing. People are going to be impacted from New York City to well south of here.”PHILADELPHIA FIRE DEPARTMENT HANDOUT/EPA-EFE/ShutterstockWPVI
