Delaware State Government Offices in New Castle County to Open Two Hours Late Due to Inclement Weather
Dover – Governor Ruth Ann Minner announced early this morning that Delaware state government offices in New Castle County will open two hours late as a result of icy roadways in the northern portion of the state. This two-hour delay also applies to non-essential state government employees who live in New Castle County but work in Kent or Sussex counties.
“Department of Transportation crews have been working to keep our roads clear, however, because of icy road conditions in the northern part of our state, I believe staggering the morning rush hour in New Castle County will result in safer conditions on our roadways,” Gov. Ruth Ann Minner said. “I urge all motorists to travel safely this morning and to allow extra time to reach their destinations.”
State government offices in Kent and Sussex counties will open on time.
