Many people faced a tough commute on Wednesday morning along Concord Pike in north Wilmington.
Southbound Concord Pike (Route 202) was closed between Silverside Road and Naamans Road due to repairs to utility poles. The busy north-south route opened later in the day.
UPDATE: Utility repairs have been completed and Rt. 202 SB is now beginning to reopen, though delays may take time to clear. Drive safely! #netde https://t.co/IzLFqze6OZ
