95 has been locked up around MLK and 52 for at least an hour. Ambulances and fire trucks up and down. I can see it from here.

How's about a traffic section on TD?

Is it still backed up? I know there was an accident on 95 near MLK but that should be cleared... not sure if the back-up from it is gone yet.

Northbound is moving, but southbound on the overpass is 1 mph.

I can't see 95 from my office window... only 495. I hope the traffic clears up though because my hubby has to pick me up from work and I don't want to be trapped here all night!

I remember getting a text alert about an accident south of Wilmington. I didn't want to risk traffic because they said there were lanes of 95S closed so I took 13 home.

Well, in this case, I personally could see the rescue teams and the logjam.

We might not use it often, but every now and then a member might see something or get stuck in something and be able to give TD some info that other outlets might not have yet. Like Paul getting that SUV flip.

I could post about the traffic here, in Sussex, from Bethany/Fenwick, to Lewes/Rehoboth, during the summer months. How about that?

Too crowded, you'll have to sit in traffic for hours and the beaches are toe toe.

There, just reuse that, lol

The State has Twitter page that gives traffic updates if you have an account already or were interested in signing up for it ...

Delaware Gov on Twitter

Plus, the State hosts a real time travel advisory page here.

*Also, that Wilmington News Journal website offers text updates that include traffic and travel information as well as a ton of 'other' news that you may or may not want.
