One lane will be closed on Route 9 between Sea Isle Boulevard and Avalon Boulevard for construction on a transmission line.

Atlantic City Electric is currently rebuilding a critical transmission line running through Middle and Dennis townships to improve reliability for Cape May County customers and visitors to the region.

To safely perform this work, one lane will be closed on Route 9 between Sea Isle Boulevard and Avalon Boulevard in Cape May County from about 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday through Saturday, resulting in traffic delays.

Atlantic City Electric said in a statement that it is committed to minimizing potential impacts on local traffic, businesses and the community while the work is done.

Construction along this portion of Route 9 is expected to be completed by April.
