The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is running a live stream of Interstate 95 reconstruction so people can watch repair work on a the bridge that collapsed June 11 in Philadelphia.

A portion of the elevated section of I-95 collapsed after a tanker truck caught fire beneath it.

Pennsylvania State Police said the tractor-trailer, hauling 8,500 gallons of gasoline, flipped on an off-ramp, triggering a blaze that caused part of the interstate to fall down.

The northbound tanker driver was "trying to navigate the curve, lost control of the vehicle, landed on its side and ruptured the tank,” state Transportation Secretary Mike Carroll said.
