Route 1 Southbound Lane Closures in Effect Until 4 PM for Construction Work

Motorists traveling on southbound Route 1 should expect delays today as construction crews have shut down the two right lanes between South Croppers Circle and South James Street.

According to DelDOT traffic officials, the lane closures are necessary for ongoing construction work in the area. The restrictions are expected to be lifted by 4 PM this afternoon.

Drivers are advised to use caution when traveling through the work zone and allow extra time for their commute. Traffic may be backed up during peak travel hours as vehicles merge into the remaining open lanes.
