SEAFORD, Del. — Motorists traveling through the Seaford area will need to find an alternate route this summer as a portion of Concord Road is set to close for an extended period.
The Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) is scheduled to begin work on Bridge 3-243, which carries Concord Road over Tubbs Branch, on Tuesday, July 7, 2026. The project is part of a Pavement and Rehabilitation and Bridge Rehabilitation contract.
The bridge rehabilitation work will require a full road closure between Honeysuckle Drive and Church Road on Concord Road. The closure is expected to remain in place from July 7, 2026 through September 21, 2026.
DelDOT has established a detour for drivers heading westbound on SR 20 (Concord Road). Those drivers should turn left onto US 9 (County Seat Highway), then turn right onto US 13 (Sussex Highway), which will reconnect them to SR 20 (Concord Road).
Drivers are encouraged to plan ahead and allow extra travel time during the closure period.
