REVISED - Public Workshop Announced For Route 113 Intersection Improvements Near Georgetown

Georgetown -- The Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) invites the public to attend a public workshop to receive an update on the status of the proposed improvements to address safety at two median crossovers along Route 113, south of Georgetown:

- Route 113 at Almshouse Road / Speedway Road
- Route 113 at Wood Branch Road / Kruger Road

The proposed improvements will be the focus of the February 13 public workshop. Interested members of the public are invited to attend at any time between 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at the DelDOT South District Administration Building (23697 DuPont Boulevard) in Georgetown. Attendees will have an opportunity to review display materials and provide comments to DelDOT representatives.

Specifically, the proposed project involves reconstructing the median crossovers to install islands to restrict turning movements. The access to the median area at Almshouse Road/Speedway Road will be reconstructed to limit Route 113 northbound and southbound left-turn movements only. The access to the median area at Wood Branch Road/Kruger Road will be reconstructed to limit eastbound and westbound left-turn movements only.

Interested persons are invited to express their views in writing, giving reasons for support of or in opposition to, the proposed project. Comments will be received during the workshop or can be mailed to DelDOT Public Relations, P.O. Box 778, Dover, DE 19903-0778. This location is accessible to persons having disabilities. Any person having special needs or requiring special aid, such as an interpreter for the hearing impaired, is requested to contact DelDOT by phone or mail one week in advance.
