Portion of Junction and Breakwater Trail at Cape Henlopen State Park Will Remain Closed

DNREC’s Division of Parks and Recreation has announced that a section of the Junction and Breakwater Trail in Cape Henlopen State Park, which has been closed since Feb. 27 for utility work, will remain closed for two more weeks. It is scheduled to re-open on May 23.

The 1.5 mile section of the trail north of Wolfe Neck Road will remain closed until construction is complete. The closure is to accommodate construction of a new sewer line for Sussex County’s Wolfe Neck Treatment Plant, in order to improve sewer service in the Lewes area. 

During construction, the rest of the six-mile trail, from Wolfe Neck Road south to Rehoboth Beach, will continue to be open to the public.

For more information, please call Cape Henlopen State Park at 302-645-8983.
