Drivers traveling north on Coastal Highway should expect delays this afternoon as construction crews have blocked off the left lane between Paynter Drive and Broadkill Road.
The Delaware Department of Transportation reports the lane restriction on Route 1 northbound will stay in effect until 3 PM today. Motorists are advised to use caution in the work zone and allow extra travel time.
The affected stretch runs from Paynter Drive to the intersection with Route 16, also known as Broadkill Road. Traffic is being funneled into the remaining right lane during the construction period.
