SHA to close Rt. 113 lanes overnight for road expansion

Four overnight closings of Route 113 near Newark will be necessary as work on the dual highway conversion continues, with the first closure scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 9.

According to the State Highway Administration, detours will be in place overnight from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m., and each job will involve the excavation and removal of old stormwater management pipes, as well as the installation of new pipe up to 72 inches in diameter.

Three installations will be just south of Langmaid Road, and the fourth installation will take place north of Basket Switch Road. Divers will use that street as well as Newark Road as bypasses.

The SHA measured the detours at about one mile each.

Electronic signs as well as detour notices have been in place along the affected area for about a week now.
