Milford -- The Department of Transportation (DelDOT) announces that a pavement and rehabilitation project will begin on Monday, April 9. Intermittent lane closures will occur on Route 1 northbound from Cedar Neck Road to Tub Mill Pond Road, just east of Milford. This project will consist of patching and hot-mix overlay.

American Infrastructure-MD, Inc. is the contractor for this $2.9 million project. Route 1 northbound construction is anticipated to be completed by May 23, 2012.

Variable message signs will be posted to alert motorists of the upcoming construction. Motorists are advised to drive with caution, slow down in work zones, and expect delays.
