Drivers will need to find alternate routes as a major construction project has forced the complete shutdown of Market Street between Sussex Highway (US Route 13) and Queen Avenue.
According to DelDOT officials, the roadway closure affects traffic in both directions and is expected to last until May 12th, 2026. The extended timeline suggests this is a substantial infrastructure improvement project that will impact daily commutes and local business access for nearly two years.
Motorists traveling through the area should plan for delays and consider using alternative routes while the construction work is underway. The closure represents one of the longer-term road projects currently affecting Delaware transportation networks.
