I was just briefed by @PEMAHQ, @PennDOTNews, and @PAStatePolice on the I-95 fire and collapse in Philadelphia.

State Police and PEMA are on the scene assisting local first responders and @PennDOTSec and his team are en route to assess the situation and address traffic needs.

President Joe Biden \"has been briefed on the collapse\" and the White House is communicating with Shapiro and Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney's offices, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre tweeted.

The collapse will have \"significant impacts\" on the city and region until reconstruction is complete, Buttigieg wrote in a later tweet. An average of 160,000 vehicles drive each day on the section of I-95 that collapsed this morning in Philadelphia, according to a DOT spokesperson.

\"This is a major artery for people and goods, and the closure will have significant impacts on the city and region until reconstruction and recovery are complete,\" Buttigieg tweeted. \"Our department will be there with support throughout the process of I-95 returning to normal.\"

\"The challenges will be real when it comes to traffic movements in the city,\" Pennsylvania's Secretary of Transportation Mike Carroll said at Sunday's press conference.

Federal Highway Administrator Shailen Bhatt will travel to Philadelphia on Monday to offer federal support and assistance.

\"The I-95 corridor is a vital connection for people and goods traveling along the East Coast, and FHWA has offered support and assistance to state and local officials to help them safely reopen this section of I-95 as quickly as possible,\" a spokesperson for the FHA said in a statement.

A team of specialists in motor carrier and hazardous materials safety, highway and technical reconstruction, and emergency response are expected to be on site as well on Monday to begin the on-scene portion of the investigation into the I-95 collapse, according to the National Transportation Safety Board

A preliminary report will be available in two to three weeks, the NTSB said.

ABC News' Teddy Grant and Darren Reynolds contributed to this report.
