Workers will begin removing the existing I-95 southbound on-ramps and existing bridge structures for the 2nd Street and Jackson Street ramps so a new, safer ramp configuration for access to I-95 southbound can be constructed. Crews also will be working on various street improvements related to the new southbound on-ramp.
According to DelDOT, motorists can expect nighttime intermittent lane closures between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m., Sunday through Friday, as well as road closures during certain phases of construction for the duration of the project, which is scheduled to be completed in the summer of 2023. Traffic advisories and variable message boards will be posted to alert motorists of scheduled road closures.
