TRAFFIC ALERT - Closure Of I-495 To Occur Thursday, June 11th


Requires Full Southbound Lane Closures

Wilmington
-- DelDOT announces that the Delaware State Police (DSP) Collision Reconstruction Unit (CRU) has requested a full closure of Interstate 495 southbound at the Route 13 off-ramp (Exit 1), for Thursday, June 11, 2009, at 9:00 a.m. until approximately 11:00 a.m. The closures are necessary to enable the DSP to collect data from the scene of a serious injury accident that occurred on Saturday, June 6, 2009.

Southbound interstate traffic at the Pennsylvania state line will be diverted to continue south along Interstate 95. Local traffic within Delaware will still be permitted to access Interstate 495 southbound at all other interchanges. That traffic will be detoured off of Interstate 495 southbound at the Route 13 Exit. Traffic will then proceed south along Route 13 southbound to Interstate 295 southbound and then back onto Interstate 95 southbound. Detour routes will be marked. This planned closure is weather contingent.

Motorists are advised to expect delays, drive with caution, and to slow down within work zones, and expect delays.
