Burlington, MA -
March 18, 2008 - Maptuit Corporation reacted swiftly to
the two-mile stretch closure of Interstate 95 in
Philadelphia. The closure information has been confirmed
with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation.
Maptuit has taken the necessary steps to ensure trucks are being
diverted by implementing a general restriction to affect the
routing around the affected area.
“We have moved soon as we
were able to verify the information with the DOT. We were
also alerted by one of our customers and then made the real-time
changes to our routing systems.” said Kevin LaBrie,
Director of Customer Support at Maptuit. “We will
continue to work with local and state officials and the
Department of Transportation to provide our customers the latest
information and modify the restriction once we are able to
confirm the DOT.”
Please feel free to contact our support line if you have any
questions, the number to reach our support line is
