Construction Closes Right Lane on West Newport Pike Until 5 PM

Motorists traveling on West Newport Pike are encountering traffic delays today due to ongoing construction activities that have forced the closure of the right lane.

According to DelDOT officials, the lane restriction affects the westbound direction of West Newport Pike in the stretch between Petro Drive and Stanton Drive. The construction work is expected to continue until 5 PM today.

Drivers are advised to allow extra travel time and exercise caution when passing through the work zone. Traffic may be moving slower than usual as vehicles merge from the closed right lane into the remaining open lanes.
