 Original plans called for the expressway to follow the U.S. Route 13 corridor to the Trenton-Morrisville Toll Bridge, where I-95 would continue north along today's Trenton Freeway.However, due to limited capacity of the highway through Trenton, planners instead opted to build a new alignment bypassing Trenton to the west (today I-295), incorporating the existing Scudder Falls Bridge.Controversy erupted in the early 1960s over the planned eight-lane elevated segment of the highway along the Center City waterfront; residents of the upscale Society Hill neighborhood objected to the highway on the grounds that it would cut off the neighborhood from the river.
