REHOBOTH BEACH, Del. – Rehoboth Beach is preparing for two major seasonal events that will temporarily restrict traffic across parts of the city next week. City officials outlined the closures in a public notice and encouraged drivers to review the routes in advance to avoid delays.
The annual Hometown Christmas Parade will take place Monday, Dec. 1, beginning at 6:30 p.m. along Rehoboth Avenue. To accommodate parade staging and pedestrian activity, Rehoboth Avenue will close from the traffic circle to the bandstand from 6 to 10 p.m. Several surrounding streets will also be limited to local access only. According to the city, State Street from Hickman Street to Rehoboth Avenue and Country Club Drive will close from 4 to 10 p.m. Additional closures from 4 to 9 p.m. will affect Sussex Street between Columbia Avenue and 4th Street, along with 5th Street between Rehoboth Avenue and Kent Street.
Later in the week, the Rehoboth Beach Seashore Marathon and Half-Marathon will bring further restrictions on Saturday, Dec. 6. From 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., only street residents will be permitted to access Henlopen Avenue, Grove Street from Columbia Avenue to Henlopen Avenue, Gerar Street, 4th Street and the section of Sussex Street between 5th and 4th streets. The city noted that brief rolling closures may occur along the course as runners pass, with additional details expected closer to race day.
City officials said advance signage has already been placed along affected routes to alert drivers and residents. The city is urging motorists to plan alternate routes and allow extra travel time during both events as crowds and detours are expected.
