DelDOT held a workshop on Thursday March 11th at Carcroft Elementary School for the I-95 & Carr Road/Marsh Road Interchange Improvements. Mark Parker, P.E., Principal of Landmark/JCM attended the workshop to review the project alternatives and talk with DelDOT Officials and consultants.
The project will entail the following upgrades:
1. The I-95 Northbound off-ramp to Marsh Road will be widened to provide two (2)-left turn lanes with signalization at Carr Road;
2. Carr Road, depending upon the selected alternative, may or may not see improvements. Improvements would include widening to allow for two (2) left turn lanes at Marsh Road and potentially even widening to allow for an I-95 Northbound on-ramp;
3. The Marsh Road underpass would see improvements to allow for upgrades to the travel and turn lanes and provide for a five (5)-foot sidewalk and a 10-foot sidepath;
4. The I-95 Southbound on-ramp from Westbound Marsh Road, depending on the alternative, would be widened to allow for immediate or future two (2)-lanes; and, finally,
5. The I-95 Southbound off-ramp to Marsh Road Eastbound would be widened to provide for two (2)-left turn lanes.
The goals of the improvements are to upgrade the levels of service and to reduce the accidents around this interchange. The design process, scheduled to last approximately two (2)-years has begun. Construction funds are scheduled in the CTP for 2012 and 2013.
Landmark/JCM will continue to monitor the improvements and how they will affect future development. Please contact us with any questions or to meet with us for your next successful project.
