Two Separate Fatal Incidents in Philadelphia

On March 15, 2026, at approximately 5:15 a.m., a two-vehicle crash occurred on the 5200 block of Torresdale Avenue, resulting in the death of an infant and serious injuries to an adult passenger.

Preliminary investigation determined that Unit #1, a privately operated ambulance, was traveling southbound on Torresdale Avenue at a high rate of speed and was not operating in emergency status, with no lights or sirens activated. The vehicle proceeded through a steady red traffic signal at the intersection with Harbison Avenue. At the same time, Unit #2, a 2010 Honda Accord traveling eastbound on Harbison Avenue with a steady green signal, entered the intersection and was struck on the driver’s side front door by Unit #1. The force of the crash ejected both the adult passenger, identified as the infant’s mother, and the infant through the front windshield of Unit #1. Both were found on the roadway.

Statewide Pothole Repair Begins 

New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) Acting Commissioner Priya Jain today announced that the annual statewide campaign to repair potholes across New Jersey will begin on Monday, March 16.

“Winter is tough on our roads. That’s why our crews are working quickly to repair them,” Governor Mikie Sherrill said. “New Jersey drivers deserve safe, smooth roads, and this campaign is about fixing problems fast to keep people moving and our economy flowing.”

Read more: Statewide Pothole Repair Begins 

With a more active winter this year and temperatures continually fluctuating between above and below freezing, the Department expects to repair more potholes this season than last year. Potholes are created by water seeping into cracks in the asphalt and then expanding when it freezes, so this type of weather pattern takes a toll on state highways.

“The New Jersey Department of Transportation is beginning our annual pothole campaign on Monday, March 16. Over the next couple of months our priority will be repairing potholes formed this winter,” Acting Commissioner Jain said. “NJDOT crews work year-round to repair potholes and keep our highways in good condition, but at this time of year, it becomes our primary focus.”

To repair potholes in the most aggressive and efficient manner, the Department will be allowing crews throughout the state to close travel lanes where necessary during daytime hours.  When possible, crews will limit their daytime work hours to 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and will try to avoid working in travel lanes during peak commuting times.

NJDOT will be using Variable Message Signs (VMS) to alert motorists of the campaign and, to the extent possible, of lane closures that could result in temporary travel delays. Detailed current repair locations will be posted on a continual basis on www.511nj.org.

As the weather warms up and asphalt plants reopen, our crews will start to perform permanent patch operations on particularly problematic sections of roadway. This is more extensive work that requires milling and paving a small area of the road that, generally, will be done overnight.

In the past five fiscal years (FY20 – FY24), NJDOT has repaired an average of approximately 155,000 potholes per year. The average has steadily decreased over the past several years because of NJDOT’s emphasis on repaving our State Highways, improving the percentage of roads in good and fair condition from 47 percent in 2008 to 81 percent today. So far in FY26 (July 1, 2025 – March 13, 2026), NJDOT has repaired about 89,100 potholes, with the busiest pothole repair season just starting.

It is important to slow down in work zones so NJDOT crews can safely make repairs. New Jersey’s Move Over law requires motorists to move over, if it is safe to do so, when approaching an emergency or service vehicle stopped on the side of the road. If you cannot safely MOVE OVER, PLEASE SLOW DOWN.

In addition to our crews monitoring and reporting potholes that need repair on state highways, we encourage motorists to report potholes as well. Motorists may call 1-800-POTHOLE (1-800-768-4653) or go online to report potholes on state roads using a mapping feature to help identify the exact location of the pothole.

To report potholes on county roads, contact the appropriate jurisdiction. The Department responds as quickly as possible, especially to reports of potholes that create safety concerns based on their size and location.

Motorists are encouraged to check NJDOT’s traffic information website www.511nj.org for construction updates and real-time travel information. For NJDOT news follow us on X (Twitter) @NewJerseyDOT, on the NJDOT Facebook page, or Instagram @NewJersey.DOT.
