DelDOT no stranger to working on Five Points messes

August 13, 2019

Delaware’s Department of Transportation continues to work on engineering solutions to make traffic patterns in the Five Points area - where Route 9 crosses Route 1 - work more smoothly. This photograph from the early 20th century was made before a contract was let to improve the road surface in that area. Then, as now, the problems were obvious and improvements were sorely needed.

  • Delaware Cape Region History in Photographs, published every Tuesday in the Cape Gazette, features historical photos from Delaware's Cape Region - particularly - and from throughout Sussex County and Delaware generally.

    Readers are invited to submit photos of historic interest. They can be mailed to the Cape Gazette at PO Box 213, Lewes, DE 19958, or via email to newsroom@capegazette.com.
