Motorists traveling through Dover should be aware of a significant road closure currently in effect on Water Street.
According to Delaware’s Department of Transportation, Water Street is shut down in both directions between South State Street and South Governors Avenue. The closure is related to ongoing construction in the area.
The road is expected to remain closed until August 20th, 2026, meaning drivers will need to find alternate routes for an extended period of time.
Travelers in the area are encouraged to plan ahead and allow extra time when navigating through that part of Dover.
