Drivers traveling southbound on Coastal Highway should expect some extra time behind the wheel this afternoon. A congestion-related delay of five to ten minutes has been reported on the roadway between the Route 1A junction at Rehoboth Beach and the Route 1A junction at Dewey Beach.
No specific incident has been identified as the cause — the slowdown appears to be the result of general traffic congestion along that popular coastal corridor.
Motorists in the area are encouraged to allow additional travel time or look for an alternate route to avoid the backup.
