Minos Conaway Road project construction begins July 28

Construction is set to begin on the first phase of the Minos Conaway Road grade-separated intersection project along Route 1 north of Lewes. 

Beginning Monday, July 28, northbound Route 1 traffic will shift west. A barrier will be installed along the east side between Route 9 and Nassau Road. A closure of the southern intersection of Tulip Drive, just north of Five Points, will be in place for about two months. Access to Tulip Drive at the blinking lights at St. Jude the Apostle Catholic Church will still be available.  

Phase 1 is expected to last until December. 

Access to the Lewes-to-Georgetown Trail will experience brief impacts during trail tie-in work later in Phase 1, and trail users may be temporarily impacted during these operations.
