Delaware transportation officials have implemented a temporary speed reduction on Interstate 495, lowering the limit to 55 miles per hour due to hazardous wet weather conditions affecting the roadway.
The Delaware Department of Transportation announced the precautionary measure as rain continues to create slippery and potentially dangerous driving conditions along the interstate corridor.
Motorists traveling on I-495 are advised to reduce their speed and exercise additional caution while the wet weather persists. The temporary speed limit adjustment is designed to help prevent accidents and ensure driver safety during the challenging road conditions.
The speed restriction will remain in place until weather conditions improve and normal driving conditions return to the interstate.
