Interstate 95 in the US city of Philadelphia is set to be reopened "safely and quickly" after a section of the roadway collapsed following a truck fire last weekend.
South-eastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (Septa) says it is boosting public transport capacity 'until further notice'.
The highway around the incident - usually a busy section of road - is currently closed in both directions and a number of detours are in operation.
The US Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has released $3m to support Pennsylvania DoT (PennDoT)’s "traffic mitigation efforts...and emergency repairs necessary to restore this essential traffic", said US Department of Transportation under secretary for policy Carlos Monje.
Another $7 million of Pennsylvania state funds have also been earmarked.
Aside from mass transit, alternatives such as car-pooling are suggested for drivers facing delays and detours.
The demolition of the damaged section of I-95 is expected to be complete today (Thursday), which authorities say is "well ahead of schedule".
Pennsylvania governor Josh Shapiro said: “Getting I-95 repaired and reopened is our top priority – and we are working our tails off."
