Years in the making, pedestrian improvements at the intersection of Grove and Munson streets and State Road in Rehoboth Beach are well underway.
When completed, there will be a new crosswalk across Munson Street, a new crosswalk across State Road and flashing pedestrian beacons similar to ones installed on Rehoboth Avenue a couple of years ago. Bump outs have been installed on all four corners of the intersection to make the distance across the street shorter.
The city awarded the contract to A-Del Construction for about $300,000. Construction began a few weeks ago and is expected to be done before the end of the city’s fiscal year, which is March 31.
