Speak Up: Walnut Shade property owners, DelDOT divided over intersection

Posted

Though design plans for a large-scale road project there are complete, Walnut Shade Road property owner Janice Walls says she never agreed to sell her property to the state and does not want to leave it. According to the Delaware Department of Transportation, she sounded receptive to it during multiple discussions, the first in November 2020. And now, the property-acquisition process is underway.

  • DelDOT is trying to make the intersection safer for everyone. — Patti Smith
  • Good luck trying to deal with DelDOT. I hope they are better at the current time than they were years back. — Lesley Ann
  • This has been posted everywhere, and for well over a year-plus, they have had meetings. I attended one over a year ago by Zoom. I’m not sure why people wouldn’t be aware of this. Plus, this intersection is horrible. It’s sad people will lose footage but it’s necessary that something be done for sure. — Melissa Allen Ziegler
  • Posted where? — Bryan Hanggi
  • I am just stuck in memory from back in 1997, when we had such a horrible experience with someone who caused us such needless frustration and so much anxiety. Made me have a harsh attitude and an eye-opening experience as to how underhanded people in his position could be. I didn’t know about this proposed roundabout, but hopefully, the outcome benefits the majority. — Lesley Ann
