Construction to begin on Rt. 24 at I-95 and Rt. 924

A major $38 million road construction project is to begin on Rt. 24 and Rt. 924, extending from the I-95 interchange north to the Rt. 24 bridge crossing Winters Run (just south of Singer Rd.)

First, a temporary intersection will be built at Routes 24 and 924, just south of the existing intersection.  Next an overpass bridge will be built over Rt. 924 which is intended to eliminate the traffic signal, chaotic traffic patterns and resulting daily traffic backups.  During this time the Rt. 24 bridge over I-95 will be widened and new I-95 ramps will be built.  Upon completion the temporary intersection at Rt. 924 will be removed and landscaping restored.

Expect 3 years of traffic delays through 2011; leave early and drive safe!
