Delaware Route 1 North

SR 1/7 between Exit 164 and I-95 was one of the most congested stretches of freeway in the state of Delaware until the addition of flyovers in 2013. 12/18/04

The last original exit sign for I-95 north and the former Mall Road overpass linking Christiana Mall and SR 7. Built in conjunction with a partial interchange linking Stanton Christiana Road (SR 7) and the 1980 opened mall, the bridge tied into a tight loop ramp from SR 7 south onto Mall Road east. The Mall Road ramp to SR 7 included a traffic light adjacent to the loop. 12/18/04

The Tybouts Corner to Christiana section of SR 1 initially used mile based exit numbers. These were converted to use kilometer based exit numbers in 1997. 03/17/95

The missing I-495 shield for Exit 165B was eventually added. 12/18/04

Prior to 2016, a lone shield assembly referenced the continuation of SR 7 north at the 2013-completed separation with Exit 165B. The overhead for I-95 south was changed to show that both lanes to the left serve SR 7 north. 09/28/14

An overhead for I-95 south (Exit 165A) was added in 2000, coinciding with the completion of the interchange (Exit 166) with SR 58. The ground level sign remained for a period of time. 12/18/04

The 2000-sign for Exit 165A was replaced by 2008, and its predecessor by 2013. Tolls are not charged along I-95 south until after Exit 1 with SR 896. 08/03/13

The SR 1/7 bridge over SR 58 was complete by late 1998. 12/18/04

This 1998 overhead for SR 58 (Churchmans Road) was replaced by 2008. Churchmans Road comprises a busy arterial west to Delaware Park and east across I-95. 12/18/04

A loop ramp links Exit 166 with SR 58 (Churchmans Road), one mile east of Christiana Hospital. 12/18/04

SR 58 leads west to SR 4 at Delaware Park and east to SR 273 near Hares Corner. 12/23/06

An end sign for SR 1 was posted beyond the SR 58 underpass in June 2000. It was removed by March 2004. 07/01/00

SR 7 transitions into an arterial at the signalized intersection with AAA Boulevard. The replacement made here included yellow flashers. 04/03/04
