TODAY – The Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) is holding a Public Workshop to obtain comments from surrounding residents, businesses and the general public for the proposed extension of the Junction and Breakwater Trail to Rehoboth Avenue. The project proposes to construct a 10 foot wide multi-use path from the termination of the existing Junction and Breakwater Trail at both Hebron Road and Holland Glade Road into the City of Rehoboth. The project will include pedestrian improvements to the existing drawbridge as well as ADA compliant curb ramps and crosswalks. This work will improve pedestrian and bicycle access and safety along the corridor while connecting to the existing regional network of trails:

The Public Workshop will be held on January 28, 2014 at the Rehoboth Beach Convention Center Conference Suite from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

This location is accessible to persons having disabilities. Any person having special needs or requiring special aid, such as an interpreter for the hearing impaired, is requested to contact DelDOT by phone or mail one week in advance.

Interested persons are invited to express their views in writing, giving reasons for support of or in opposition to, the proposed project. Comments will be received during the workshop or can be mailed to DelDOT Public Relations, P.O. Box 778, Dover, DE 19903. When applicable, we offer the opportunity to fill out a questionnaire online which will automatically get emailed to Public Relations.

For further information contact Public Relations at 1-800-652-5600 (in DE) or 302-760-2080 or write to the above address.
