CHRISTIANA, DELAWARE (11/17/2015) Motorists will face delays tonight as three northbound Interstate 95 lanes are closed  at Christiana to allow for repairing of the bridge deck over Routes 1/7, the Delaware Department of Transportation announced.

DelDOT said the work will begin at 8 and end by 6 a.m. Wednesday.

The three left lanes will be closed, with at least one lane remaining open at all times, DelDOT said.

The northbound on-ramp from Routes 1/7 to northbound I-95 also will be affected.

Officials said the work is being done at night to minimize the impact on traffic.

Signs in advance of the construction area will advise motorists of detour routes.

Weather could delay the project.
