Tuesday, March 24, 2026 at 4:06 PM

A section of South Williams Street near Bethany Beach is temporarily shut down to traffic. The closure affects the stretch between Bethany Road and Lighthouse Road due to ongoing utility repairs.

Motorists traveling through the Bethany Beach area should plan alternate routes as a portion of South Williams Street remains blocked to traffic for utility maintenance.

The affected roadway spans from Bethany Road to Lighthouse Road, creating a detour situation for drivers who regularly use this route. Delaware Department of Transportation officials have not provided a timeline for when the street will reopen to normal traffic flow.

Drivers are encouraged to seek alternative paths while crews complete the necessary utility infrastructure work in the area.
