Rehoboth Avenue Bridge Painting Project to Get Underway This Month
DelDOT will begin work on the Rehoboth Avenue (SR 1A) Bridge over the Lewes-Rehoboth Canal on Friday, October 17th as part of a statewide bridge painting program. Lane shifts and lane closures on Rehoboth Avenue are permitted to occur while work takes place Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. until early 026 (weather permitting). Beginning October 17th, Canal Street will be closed. Detours will be in effect at that time and Bicyclists may use travel lanes where “Bike in Lane” signs are posted. A flagger will be provided for pedestrians when sidewalks are actively blocked, and at the end of each day’s operation the pedestrian facility will be reopened and unrestricted.
