Wilmington – The Department of Transportation (DelDOT) advises motorists who use Route 141, north of Faulkland Road, that starting Wednesday, June 4, the southbound lanes will be shifted to the west. On Thursday, June 5, the northbound lanes will also be shifted to the west. Four travel lanes will be maintained after the switch, which will last for one year.
Expect delays between 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. while work takes place. The traffic switch is weather dependent. Message boards have been set up notifying drivers of the shift.
The Route 141, Kirkwood Highway to Faulkland Road, project is designed to improve safety, relieve congestion, improve and add pedestrian and bicycle facilities, and enhance the area’s aesthetics. Greggo & Ferrara, Inc., a New Castle-based construction firm began construction last fall and will continue through 2010. Landscaping will take place in 2011.
For more information, visit DelDOT’s Web page dedicated to the project at www.de141.deldot.gov or tune to WTMC-AM 1380.
