I-95 and Route 896 Lane Closures Begin Monday in New Castle County

Commuters in New Castle County should prepare for traffic delays as Delaware transportation officials implement lane restrictions on two major roadways beginning Monday.

State transportation authorities will close lanes on northbound Interstate 95 during daytime hours from Monday through Thursday to provide truck access for ongoing construction projects.

Meanwhile, drivers using southbound State Route 896 will encounter both lane closures and turn lane restrictions during daytime hours as crews conduct milling and paving operations starting Monday.

The Delaware Department of Transportation has issued the traffic advisory to help motorists plan alternate routes and allow extra travel time during the construction period.
