LEWES, Del. — A long-planned road project at the intersection of State Route 1 and Minos Conaway Road will begin July 28, with traffic set to shift westbound through the construction zone. According to state and local officials, a barrier wall will be installed on the east side of Route 1 between Route 9 and Nassau Road, marking the first major phase of the project. The southern entrance to Tulip Drive will close for roughly two months. During that time, drivers will need to use the northern intersection for access. Temporary disruptions are also possible along the Georgetown-to-Lewes Trail as construction progresses. The work is part of a broader effort to improve traffic flow and safety at the busy junction. The project is expected to be complete by December, pending weather conditions.
