Drivers using Interstate 95 southbound should expect delays this morning as construction crews have shut down multiple lanes between the Delaware Welcome Center and the Newark Toll Plaza.<\/p>

According to the Delaware Department of Transportation, two left lanes remain blocked for construction activities, with the closure expected to remain in effect until 7 a.m. today.<\/p>

Additionally, motorists who typically use EZ Pass for quicker toll processing will need to use alternative lanes, as the electronic toll collection lanes at the Newark Toll Plaza are also temporarily closed as part of the construction project.<\/p>

DelDOT advises drivers to allow extra travel time and consider alternate routes if possible during the morning commute.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
