After years of construction, a pair of Route 1 bridges over Route 16 near Milton are expected to be open for travel Wednesday, April 15, as construction of the northbound span has been completed.
Delays may occur after 7 p.m., April 14, and throughout the day April 15, as final tie-in work is completed, said Delaware Department of Transportation Director of Community Relations Charles “CR” McLeod.
The southbound bridge opened to traffic almost exactly a year ago, April 21.
More details will be published as they are released.
