Drivers in Milton should prepare for traffic changes beginning Monday, February 23rd, as the Delaware Department of Transportation starts a major reconstruction project at the Route 1 and Hudson Road intersection.
DelDOT officials announced they will temporarily shut down the crossover at Route 1 and Hudson Road/Steamboat Landing Road, along with implementing lane restrictions on both northbound and southbound Route 1. The construction project involves rebuilding the crossover and adding a new median island between the north and south lanes of Route 1, plus installing an acceleration lane for southbound traffic.
Construction crews will be active Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM throughout the approximately three-week timeline, assuming favorable weather conditions allow work to proceed as planned.
Transportation officials are urging drivers to reduce their speed when traveling through the construction zone and to allow extra time for their commutes due to anticipated minor delays in the area.
