Boyds Corner Intersection Improvement to begin Monday, August 3
Year-long project begins with daytime lane closure on northbound Route 13
Middletown -- The project to improve the intersection at Boyds Corner Road/Route 896 and Route 13 in southern New Castle County will enter the construction phase Monday August 3, when one lane of northbound Route 13 will be closed from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The lane closure will continue until Saturday, August 8, weather permitting.
Future impacts will be announced as the project progresses.
The project, which will be performed by A-Del Construction Company, will continue for about one year, with construction projected to be completed by September 2010. The overall project cost is $4.3 million.
This important safety project will provide an additional northbound and southbound lane on Route 13 from the intersection with Greylag Road to Augustine Creek. There will also be an additional left turn lane from Boyd's Corner Road onto Route 13. The remaining turn-lanes will be lengthened to provide additional capacity. In addition to the road construction, crews will need to make significant changes to drainage, pavement markings and signage. Crews will also relocate many utilities such as power lines.
