WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) - Transportation officials say Delaware residents should expect delays due to lane closures on the I-495 bridge over the Christiana River this week.
The Wilmington News Journal reports that DelDOT contractors will close two northbound lanes on the bridge from Monday evening until Wednesday afternoon to conduct repairs. The lanes will remain closed each day from 7 p.m. to 3 p.m.
The newspaper reports that one lane will be open while the work is being done. All lanes will reopen Wednesday afternoon.
Delaware officials are encouraging drivers to use alternate routes.
