Hi everyone—
Following up our Section CSP Sustainable Action Committee (SAC) meeting on June 6, 2024 update.
As part of our continued outreach, today we provided a copy of updated CSP SAC presentation to
the invitees of the CSP SAC June 6th meeting. These updated Powerpoint presentation slides expand
upon and further clarify the results of the virtual room public survey to provide more context of the
methodology for interpreting the virtual room public survey feedback and more detailed information
regarding the survey results. Due to recent requests for additional information, some confusion
occurring needed to be addressed, based on actions we all take as a team.

We have posted this 8/8/24 updated CSP SAC Powerpoint presentation, of our original 6/6/24
version, on our 95revive website (https://95revive.com/ ) Section CSP project page, for everyone’s
information.

We have already started the process of reaching out to schedule meetings in several weeks with
your offices. The next steps as noted in this email chain below about this study, upcoming studies,
and design process for the I-95 Corridor Reconstruction Program construction will be subsequently
discussed.

If you have any questions, or concerns, or need additional information, please just let me/us know.
Staying tuned—and in touch.
Thanks.

Hi everyone—
We held our SAC meeting last Thursday night and many/all the RCO’s attended. We updated them
and everyone attended, including last minute attendees. We have also posted our Thursday 6/6/24
Section CSP SAC meeting Powerpoint on our 95revive website CSP project page.
Last Thursday evening, after the Section CSP project update presentation, we opened up the
meeting to the RCO’s for questions and comments. We discussed and received several concerns
about study process, timing, design concepts, impacts, etc. After the meeting, I also received
additional concerns and would like to follow-up with the elected officials by scheduling individual
meetings since there’s still some confusion occurring, and needs to be addressed, based on actions
we all take as a team.

There next steps as noted in this email chain below about this study, upcoming studies, and design
process for the I-95 Corridor Reconstruction Program construction will also need to be subsequently
discussed.

I will reaching out to schedule meetings in several weeks with your offices if possible.
If you have any questions, or concerns, please just let me/us know.

Dear elected officials:

We appreciate everyone who was able to attend the I-95 Central South Philadelphia (CSP) meeting
yesterday, May 16, with the understanding that this meeting was held in advance to share the same
materials to be presented at the upcoming I-95 CSP Sustainable Action Committee (SAC) in-person
meeting, scheduled on June 6 for Registered Community Organization leaders only. These same
materials were also recently presented, with less detailed graphics, at the May 7 Sustainable Action
Committee I-95 Sectors A&B meeting, which many of you attended.

Our structured outreach to officials and stakeholders to inform each in advance of the next steps of
outreach with the communities and the public is helpful to our communication process. Many
individual RCO representatives have already accepted, responding positively to our June 6 meeting
invitation focused for their organizations to discuss the virtual public meeting room results and
reconfirming of timelines. We will email the study area RCO community group contacts a reminder
invitation this week as a courtesy.

After the June 6 meeting, any additional feedback will be incorporated into the I-95 CSP Master Plan
study document that will be shared with the public later this year. Then, the next planning studies
will begin and include additional public outreach in approximately 6-9 months. Once these
additional planning studies are completed, years from now, a design engineering phase for I-95
projects can begin, which will ultimately lead to construction starting in 2039-2040 at the earliest.
Throughout this process, we will have many outreach efforts with agencies, officials, stakeholders,
community leaders and the general public.

If you have any comments or questions, please respond to this email or contact Chuck Davies,
[email protected] , or 610-205-6670.

Sincerely,
Dawn

Hi Steve,

Doug Robbins is the owner of the invitation, and he confirmed that both Rich and Antonio were on the
invitation, which did not bounce back as undeliverable. Nonetheless, he re-sent the invitation to both of
them.

Doug also looked into the question about the other RCOs and provided the following information.

Regarding the other RCOs, as shown from the maps below, they are all outside of the project area by a
number of blocks. As we tried to explain in the email we sent May 11, the next round of studies will have
more opportunity to engage with RCOs that aren’t directly adjacent or overlapping the project area.

“This list includes a handful of City Agencies with concurrent planning efforts in the
area and the RCOs that touch or overlap the I-95 CSP Corridor. We understand that
there are additional RCOs in each of your representative districts. Our list is to
maximize the time with those RCOs directly impacted due to the improvements, and
to engage with the RCOs that have direct contact or overlap with the project area.”

Hi Dawn,
For some reason, these two folks said they didn’t receive invitations:

·         Rich Cedrone, South Phila Communities Civic Association

·         Antonio Parretta, Veterans Stadium Neighbors Civic Assoc.

Would you mind sending them the invite again?

And would it be possible to also invite these nearby RCO leaders that have expressed interest in the
project?

·         Bruce Benjamin, East Passyunk Crossing Civic Assoc.

·         Josh Schulman, Lower Moyamensing Civic Assoc
·         Suzanne Tavani, Passyunk Square Civic Assoc.

Representative Fiedler,
The Department’s response is below, and the requested list is attached.

You’re welcome. Appreciate the response. We have another

such I-95 Corridor Sustainable Action Committee (SAC)
meeting anticipated in fall 2024. Since we hold these meetings
years in advance of I-95 construction projects when updates
warrant, with no shortage of I-95 corridor construction projects
to bid with one bid every year, these meetings are held once or
twice a year.

Attached is the list of invitees to the Section CSP SAC Meeting

on June 6, which we plan to share at our May 16 legislators pre-
meeting, and so we will also send this to the legislator meeting
attendees. Apologies in advance for the duplicate information.

This list includes a handful of City Agencies with concurrent

planning efforts in the area and the RCOs that touch or overlap
the I-95 CSP Corridor. We understand that there are additional
RCOs in each of your representative districts. Our list is to
maximize the time with those RCOs directly impacted due to the
improvements, and to engage with the RCOs that have direct
contact or overlap with the project area.

We have contact names for each of the RCOs as attached, and

all have responded. In addition, Society Hill Civic Association
(SHCA) has also provided us with an additional contact name,
and we have now included her for SHCA.

Please let us know if any of the attached RCOs also have

another additional contact name. We anticipate—as was briefly
discussed on May 7 with all the State City and FHWA agencies,
and which will be discussed in more detail on May 16 with you
and all the project area legislators—the next planning studies to
include more virtual and in-person, follow-up meetings with the
public, city, state, FHWA, and community group meetings at
least 6-9 months from now. We will follow-up with any other
additional communities/organizations in the future as the
planning studies progress.

Dawn

For the June 6th community leaders meeting at EOM, can you let us know

told us they were unaware of the meeting, so I want to make sure I’m clear
on whether they were invited and just missed an email, or if they should
instead anticipate receiving an invitation to a different meeting in the

Dear Representative Young,

We are following up concerning the request for public outreach on the I-95 CSP (Central
South Philadelphia) project. We want to schedule a time with all the project elected officials,
in advance of the upcoming in-person community group meeting being organized for early
June 2024.

As was also discussed regarding our community engagement request, spring 2024,
we will host 2 important meetings as part of our I-95 project outreach process. First,
we will hold our usual bi-annual larger scale I-95 Philadelphia Sectors A&B
Sustainable Action Committee (SAC) virtual meeting with city, state and federal
agencies and public officials on May 7, 2024 at 10am, and you have already received
the invitation. We will follow-up then with the in-person CSP project (Section SAC)
meeting in early June 2024 with community leaders within our project limits.
For your information, as part of our I-95 Corridor established multi-level SAC public
outreach, the May 7th Philadelphia Sectors A&B SAC will focus on project impacts in
the region. The in-person June 2024 community-centric CSP Section SAC meeting,
inviting leaders from Registered Community Organizations (RCOs) and neighborhood
groups, will provide insights into the project, share outcomes from our virtual meeting
room, and discuss the forthcoming steps in the highway reconstruction design
process.
We appreciate your interest and look forward to your participation in the upcoming
May 7th Philadelphia Sectors SAC meeting.
Please let us know what dates and times you are available to meet before the June
community groups meeting.
Please forward any urgent questions, or please provide them directly to Chuck Davies,
PennDOT 6-0 Senior Assistant District Executive, [email protected] or at (610) 205 6670.

in advance of the upcoming in-person community group meeting being organized for early
June 2024.

As was also discussed regarding our community engagement request, spring 2024,
we will host 2 important meetings as part of our I-95 project outreach process. First,
we will hold our usual bi-annual larger scale I-95 Philadelphia Sectors A&B
Sustainable Action Committee (SAC) virtual meeting with city, state and federal
agencies and public officials on May 7, 2024 at 10am, and you have already received
the invitation. We will follow-up then with the in-person CSP project (Section SAC)
meeting in early June 2024 with community leaders within our project limits.

For your information, as part of our I-95 Corridor established multi-level SAC public
outreach, the May 7th Philadelphia Sectors A&B SAC will focus on project impacts in
the region. The in-person June 2024 community-centric CSP Section SAC meeting,
inviting leaders from Registered Community Organizations (RCOs) and neighborhood
groups, will provide insights into the project, share outcomes from our virtual meeting
room, and discuss the forthcoming steps in the highway reconstruction design
process.

We appreciate your interest and look forward to your participation in the upcoming
May 7th Philadelphia Sectors SAC meeting.

Please let us know what dates and times you are available to meet before the June
community groups meeting.

Subject: PennDot’s survey results

Good afternoon Chuck, Doug, and Dawn,

I’m reaching out in light of the recent right-to-know release of CSP survey results on Megan
Shannon’s “Government Transparency Blog,” which has raised several concerns. I have heard from
many community members and civic leaders who have deep asked about them, including:
1. The amount of public engagement that went into the survey,
2. PennDOT’s understanding of the level of community frustration, and
3. PennDOT’s interpretation of the survey results and the community’s preferences.
To help us address the above questions, can you share if you believe that the released right-to-know
survey data is an accurate and comprehensive reflection of the information that went into the June
CSP Planning Study SAC Slideshow? If not, could you send me the additional survey results that were
used to create the information contained in the slideshow?

Once again, I want to emphasize that the construction of I-95 in South Philadelphia in the 50s and
60s created displacement, mistrust, and lasting trauma in our community. As we rebuild what
Secretary Carroll has labeled “a sin,” it is important that the residents of the 184th have a real say in
the project, and they must feel that their preferences have been heard in a meaningful and
productive way as the project is designed. Furthermore, there must be a focus on creating benefits
for residents - that are desired by the community - so that, as neighbors experience the
displacement due to and inconvenience of a major construction project in their community, they
also are clear on how the neighborhood will benefit in the end.

Elizabeth

Date: Friday, May 17, 2024 3:51:27 PM

Dear elected officials:

We appreciate everyone who was able to attend the I-95 Central South Philadelphia (CSP) meeting
yesterday, May 16, with the understanding that this meeting was held in advance to share the same
materials to be presented at the upcoming I-95 CSP Sustainable Action Committee (SAC) in-person
meeting, scheduled on June 6 for Registered Community Organization leaders only. These same
materials were also recently presented, with less detailed graphics, at the May 7 Sustainable Action
Committee I-95 Sectors A&B meeting, which many of you attended.

Our structured outreach to officials and stakeholders to inform each in advance of the next steps of
outreach with the communities and the public is helpful to our communication process. Many
individual RCO representatives have already accepted, responding positively to our June 6 meeting
invitation focused for their organizations to discuss the virtual public meeting room results and
reconfirming of timelines. We will email the study area RCO community group contacts a reminder
invitation this week as a courtesy.

After the June 6 meeting, any additional feedback will be incorporated into the I-95 CSP Master Plan
study document that will be shared with the public later this year. Then, the next planning studies
will begin and include additional public outreach in approximately 6-9 months. Once these
additional planning studies are completed, years from now, a design engineering phase for I-95
projects can begin, which will ultimately lead to construction starting in 2039-2040 at the earliest.
Throughout this process, we will have many outreach efforts with agencies, officials, stakeholders,
community leaders and the general public.

If you have any comments or questions, please respond to this email or contact Chuck Davies,
[email protected] , or 610-205-6670.

been sent out yet. The elected officials will soon be getting an email from the team
describing how the meetings will be conducted, when they will be held, and how
public outreach will proceed. There will first be a meeting with many of the
community leaders, identified by Representatives Fiedler and Isaacson as well as
Senator Saval, and then with their advice, more outreach to the communities will
follow. At the meeting, the analysis of the survey data from the fall will be shared.
In advance of that happening, if there are specific project questions that are now
being received then any constituent can be given my contact information. I’ll get
back to them without delay. I hope this is helpful.

Hello Teresa, Dawn, Doug, and Chuck,

This is Steve from Rep. Fiedler’s office. I’m just writing to check in on the I-95 project south
of Wharton St. Specifically, Rep. Fiedler was wondering if the analysis of the survey data
from the fall will be released publicly soon? I remember that you were able to show us
preliminary data back in late December.

We are also wondering about the status of public community meetings? Back in December,
you said that your aim was to hold some meetings in the late spring. Are you still working
with that timeline?

Thanks,
Steve

Hi Teresa,
Thanks again for getting your team together and meeting with us before the holiday break
about the next steps in the planning process for I-95 in South Philly. We appreciated that
PennDOT was able to share with us the preliminary analysis of the survey data, and we are
happy that PennDOT is planning a series of community stakeholder discussions for the
Spring.

Please let us know when the final analysis of the survey is complete and ready for public
consumption.

One thing we talked about on the call is that PennDOT will be reaching out to community
groups to alert them about the public meetings. To make sure that all stakeholders are
contacted, we said that we could send you a list of groups that we feel should be informed.
I’ve attached that list (with contact info) here. Note that it only includes groups that operate
within the 184th state legislative district (south of Wharton, east of Broad). I will leave it to
the other electeds to supplement the list if there are groups in their districts that they want
to make sure are contacted.

Thanks again for engaging with us on this plan. We know that this is going to be a challenging
project, and we want to continue to work with you to ensure that all stakeholders are
informed and feel they have had opportunities to voice their priorities and concerns.

Best,
Steve

Good morning Steve,

The Department would like to acknowledge your email and also confirm that the PennDOT I-95 CSP
(Central South Philadelphia) project team is currently planning outreach to schedule time with
legislative officials in the project area. That will be in advance of the upcoming in-person community
group meeting being organized. We anticipate having more information for you and invitations very
soon, within the next week.

Please let us know if there are additional questions.

Hello Charles, Teresa, and Dawn,

This is Steve from Rep. Fiedler’s office. I’m writing to check in and see if there is an update
on the scheduling of community meetings to gather information and feedback on the next
phase of the I95 rebuild? This would be for the section south of Washington Ave, extending
down to the Broad St interchange.

Please let us know if invitations have been sent out, and if not, when they will be issued.

Hello Representative Fiedler and Steve –

I hope that you are both well. I am emailing with some additional information from PennDOT in
response to the recent Inquirer articles relating to the I-95 modernization project. This may be
helpful in responding to any constituent inquiries that may arise.

Interstate 95 is the main north-south highway on the east coast, and is a critical thoroughfare
for the movement of people and goods. The importance of I-95 to the nation’s transportation
network – not to mention the Philadelphia region – was thrown into sharp focus after a tanker
fire caused the collapse of a section of the highway last year, prompting a swift, collaborative
response by the Shapiro Administration to reopen the highway in only 12 days.

For many years, PennDOT and its partners have been working to reconstruct I-95 in southeast
PA. Because the cost of such an undertaking is significant, this work has been done section by
section. Our approach in this project – and in all PennDOT projects – is to balance the needs
of the local community with the safety and efficiency of the system as a whole. Community
and stakeholder feedback is critical to project-decision making and there are many
examples of ways PennDOT has already improved communities as part of the ongoing I-95
work. There have also been significant investments in transit infrastructure made as part of I-
95 corridor work – the Cornwell Heights station improvements, and the reconstruction of the
Route 15 trolley in Port Richmond (75% of which will be paid by the I-95 project) are both
great examples of this. We will continue to work closely with communities, local officials, and
other stakeholders as we move through additional sections of the project, in close,
collaborative coordination with our federal partners. For awareness, coordination with the
Federal Highway Administration is central to PennDOT’s project planning and public
outreach, especially those occurring on the Interstate network using federal dollars.

The primary reason for modernizing the I-95 mainline through the city is to improve safety
and to bring the roadway up to current design standards. Most of the I-95 mainline in this area
has substandard shoulders, meaning the shoulders along the roadway are too narrow. Narrow
shoulders can be dangerous, especially on busy highways like I-95, because if a driver has to
pull over and the shoulder is too narrow, they’re not protected from traffic. Modernizing I-95
will bring shoulders up to current standards and for acceleration and deceleration on ramps.
Additionally, the lack of ramp length through most of the corridor does not provide sufficient
space for merging and weaving, which is also a significant safety concern.

It's also important to note that the I-95 Central South Philadelphia (CSP) Master Plan is a
planning study to evaluate a nearly six-mile segment of I-95 in Central and South Philadelphia
between Spring Garden Street and the Girard Point Bridge. We are very early in the planning
process and would emphasize that these are all preliminary options that were developed to
address economic generators, existing and future traffic, and mobility, while minimizing
impacts to the community. We’d note that so far, we’ve heard from stakeholders that they’re
concerned about the relocation of the Rizzo Rink under the I-95 mainline viaduct at
Christopher Columbus Blvd and Washington Ave., the need for additional highway access for
freight traffic at the Packer Avenue Terminal, and interest in an interchange concept that
would protect the ballfields near the Walt Whitman Bridge. We have heard these concerns and
are taking them into consideration, along with the feedback we’ve received through the virtual
public meeting. It’s important to remember that the Master Plan will be followed by more
detailed studies that will determine what project concepts will move forward for further
development, and no final decisions have been made. Community outreach, as well as
engagement with local officials, has been ongoing since the inception of the project and will
continue. Not only is it required under the federal National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA),
but it’s the right thing to do, and we intend to keep the public fully informed as we proceed.

To briefly address the question about the location of PennDOT’s southeast PA office, every
county (including Philadelphia) has a county office that handles localized maintenance needs
for that county. The team at PennDOT District 6 understands Philadelphia's unique
transportation needs, and has a long history of close collaboration with the City of
Philadelphia, the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) and many other
partners in support of our shared vision of a safe, connected city.

Thank you for your inquiry. We are always happy to answer any questions you may have.

All my very best,
