Motorists using Route 4 westbound in the Newport area should expect delays today as construction crews have closed the right lane between Petro Drive and Rothwell Drive.
The Delaware Department of Transportation reports the lane closure is part of ongoing construction work in the area. Traffic restrictions are expected to remain in effect until 5 PM today.
Drivers are advised to allow extra travel time and use caution when passing through the work zone. Traffic may be heavier than usual as vehicles merge from the closed right lane into the remaining open lanes.
