Highway sign gaffe directs drivers to "Cenrtal" Philadelphia

• Crews covered the sign with a black tarp on Monday and were expected to place a placard with the correctly spelled word over the error Monday night, Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (DOT) spokesperson Krys Johnson told Axios.
• A new sign is expected to be installed later this week.

What it's worth: Replacing the sign is estimated to cost $15,000, all of which will be covered by the site's contractors, Johnson said.

• Rocal Inc. fabricated the sign and it was installed by ML Ruberton Construction Company, state DOT spokesperson Alexis Campbell tells Axios.

What they're saying: "This error should not have happened and definitely should have been caught before the sign was installed," Campbell says.

• "We are reviewing our processes to ensure that this doesn't happen again," she added.

Zoom in: The large, green sign is located near the newly restored section of I-95, where a tanker burst into flames last year leading to a partial highway collapse.

• The on-ramp to I-95 south where the sign is located is currently not open to traffic.
