New signs continue to ignore that overlap. There are other cases where Dover is still signed at Delaware 273, and when signs were updated, they retained that control city when it should have been moved to Exit 4 (Delaware 1 & 7)...

Delaware routinely replaces signs that are not yet at their lifespan for instance. Delaware and other states are a part of the carbon copy bandwagon too, where signs are replaced without the artwork being updated. That is a problem when updates to the signs should have been made.
