Motorists traveling south on Route 1 should expect delays today as construction crews have closed one lane along a busy stretch of Coastal Highway.
The Delaware Department of Transportation reports that southbound traffic between Deep Branch Road and Broadkill Road (Route 16) will be reduced to fewer lanes while work continues in the area.
Officials say the lane restriction will remain active until 3 PM this afternoon. Drivers are advised to allow extra travel time and use caution when passing through the construction zone.
