“There are no people stranded still on I-95.' the Virginia Department of Transportation tweeted Tuesday evening.
By 9 a.m., a single lane of traffic was creeping forward between many stalled trucks and cars in one direction.
The governor said he could not provide an estimate for when I-95 would reopen or how many vehicles remained stranded. Transportation Department engineer Marcie Parker said the agency expected to finish clearing the interstate by Tuesday night and that it should be open for the Wednesday morning rush hour.
"I've been stuck here since yesterday. I've been stuck here all night. I had to walk 20 minutes to find supplies. Pretty much I can't feel my toes. Right now they're giving out water to people, but that's not enough, we're just waiting," one driver said.
