Location: Main St and Library Ave, Newark
Reassurance shield after the 2/72 junction as we enter Newark’s downtown area.
Location: Main St and Chapel St, Newark
Downtown Newark still hasn’t buried its utility lines, which gives it a historic, but dated appearance.
Location: Main St and College Ave, Newark
On the west side of downtown, we’ll approach DE 896. This is one of the more confusing junctions- involving a partial concurrency, though 896 north to 273 east involves sno concurrency at all. Delaware 896 north traffic joins right here, however, from College Avenue.
Location: Main St and New London Rd, Newark
A couple blocks later, keep right for 273 west and 896 north. Keep left for 896 south and a return to 273 east.
Location: Main St and Elkton Rd, Newark
Signage at the fork for 896 south and 273 east.
Location: Main St and New London Rd, Newark
Just after that, keep right for 896 north and stay straight for 273 west. We’re not quite out of the woods yet- 896 south is still concurrent with 273 east up ahead, though it will fork in a block.
