Press Release -- March 15, 2012

TRAFFIC ALERT - Highway Safety Improvement Project Will Require Daytime and Nighttime Lane Closures on Route 2 and Route 72/Possum Park Road

Newark -- The Department of Transportation (DelDOT) announces that Grassbusters Landscaping Company will modify the left-turn phasing on Route 2 approaches to Possum Park Road from protected-permissive to protected. This will require the extension of Route 2 eastbound left-turn lane to accommodate the projected increased left turn. Improvements will also be made for curbed islands and sidewalks to accommodate pedestrians at the intersection.

Daytime and nighttime lane closures will occur in the eastbound and westbound lanes beginning on Thursday, March 22.

The $350,000 project is expected to be completed within 26 calendar days, pending weather.

DelDOT appreciates your patience and reminds you to please drive with caution through the construction site and be on the lookout for crews and their equipment.
