Traffic on Wyoming Road in Newark will be affected by a city project to replace the culvert alongside the road, scheduled to begin on or around July 27.

The work, being completed by contractor Merit Construction Engineers, is expected to take three to four weeks and will require lane shifts, as approved by DelDOT. The road will remain open in both directions, with possible brief stoppages.

The project is expected to be completed before Aug. 25 when students return to the campus. If the project is not completed by student move-in, all lanes will be open that weekend and no work will be scheduled.
