A new four-way stop has been installed at the intersection of Delmar Road and Providence Church Road in an effort to enhance safety. Previously, only drivers on Providence Church Road were required to stop, while those on Delmar Road passed through uninterrupted. Delaware Department of Transportation crews spent the day installing the stop signs as remnants of past accidents, such as car debris, highlighted the intersection’s history of collisions. Some residents welcome the change, citing frequent speeding and the area’s use as a shortcut between Route 50 and Route 13. Others, however, worry that the new signs may cause confusion, particularly for drivers unfamiliar with the change. Concerns remain over whether the stop signs alone will be enough to slow down traffic, as some residents fear drivers may continue ignoring them. Despite differing opinions, the new traffic pattern is now in effect, and officials urge motorists to stay alert.
I live on Providence Church Road and think it’s a great place for a Four Way Stop Sign
