Drivers traveling along Lancaster Pike in New Castle County should proceed with extra caution after traffic signals in the area went dark.
According to Delaware Department of Transportation, the signal outage affects Lancaster Pike between Newport Gap Pike and Brackenville Road.
When traffic signals are not functioning, state law requires drivers to treat the intersection as a four-way stop, yielding to vehicles already in the intersection and taking turns with other drivers.
Motorists are encouraged to allow extra travel time, remain alert, and follow proper right-of-way rules until signals are restored. No estimated repair time has been provided at this time.
