OCEAN VIEW – Drivers in Sussex County will need to find alternate routes for the next two weeks as state transportation officials implement a major road closure for infrastructure improvements.
The Delaware Department of Transportation will shut down Camp Barnes Road between Millers Neck Road and Bayard Road beginning Monday, April 13th and continuing through Monday, April 27th, weather conditions permitting. The closure is necessary to allow crews to install new storm drainage systems and rebuild portions of the roadway.
DelDOT has established detour routes to help motorists navigate around the construction zone. Drivers traveling eastbound on Camp Barnes Road from Double Bridges Road should continue straight onto Bayard Road, then make a left turn onto Old Mill Bridge Road, followed by another left onto Millers Neck Road to reconnect with Camp Barnes Road.
For westbound traffic on Camp Barnes Road seeking to reach areas beyond Millers Neck Road, the recommended route involves turning left onto Millers Neck Road, then right onto Old Mill Bridge Road, and finally right onto Bayard Road to rejoin Camp Barnes Road.
The roadwork is part of ongoing infrastructure improvements in the Ocean View area aimed at enhancing drainage capabilities and road conditions for local residents and visitors.
