Lanes on Route 13 will be closed next week as construction at Boyds Corner continues
Middletown --
The Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) announces that lanes on Route 13 near Boyds Corner will be closed next week as crews install conduits in the median and install signals.
Between Greylag Road and Boyds Corner Road, there will be single, left-lane closures on northbound and southbound Route 13 to install and work on conduits in the center median. This work will be completed between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.
On Thursday, November 12, at the intersection of Route 13 and Greylag Road, there will be slowing and stopping of traffic at various times as crews install new traffic signals. This work will be completed between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Warning signs and flaggers will be on site.
The overall project to widen Boyds Corner 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 Boyds Corner Road onto Route 13. The remaining turn lanes will be lengthened to provide additional capacity. In addition to the road construction, crews will make significant changes to drainage, pavement markings and signage. Crews will also relocate many utilities such as power lines.
Future impacts will be announced as the project progresses.
