Gov. Josh Shapiro promised to “fix traffic congestion” around the South Philadelphia sports complex, with an almost $30 million infrastructure investment from the state. Major changes include a new westbound entrance ramp to I-76, artificial-intelligence-powered traffic signals, and better signage in the complex. A second left-turn lane from Front Street to I-95 opened in May. Just over half the announced funding will be spent on the I-76 entrance. Westbound travel options are currently limited to an access ramp on Broad Street. When the project is completed in 2028, the state estimates, it will be used by 800 vehicles an hour.
