  • Nanticoke Wildlife Area & Chapel Branch Site
    Delaware Birding Trail 12/5/07 4:47 PM Birding Region: Cypress & Pine Site #24: Nanticoke Wildlife Area & Site Map Chapel Branch 3 miles SW of Seaford (302) 539-3160 Managed by: DE Div. of Fish & Wildlife The Nanticoke River, which runs southwest from Seaford into Maryland and empties into the Chesapeake Bay, is bordered by several rich forest areas. Three recommended spots are along Chapel Branch, the Woodland Ferry area, and the woods surrounding the boat ramp at Phillips Landing. The woods near the confluence of Chapel Branch and the Nanticoke River are cited by local birders as the best location near Seaford for finding migrant songbirds and also boasts a rich assortment of breeding species. Two loop trails and several side trails offer a variety of options for walking. The large trees just before and on the hill after the boardwalk are especially worth checking. Three miles southwest of Chapel Branch, the Woodland Ferry dock provides a place to scan the river for waterbirds. Just beyond the ferry, Woodland Church Road enters a nice patch of riverside forest for the next mile. When the small cable ferry at Woodland is running, it offers a fun, alternative route between Chapel Branch and Phillips Landing area, on the south side of the Nanticoke. The boat launch there is also surrounded by good quality forest. .Click to Continue Other Birding Sites in the Cypress & Pine Region: Map data ©2007 Tele Atlas - Terms of Use 21.

  • Baywood Gardens Phase-3
    October 15, 2020 Ms. Betty Tustin The Traffic Group, Inc. 104 Kenwood Court Berlin, Maryland 21811 Dear Ms. Tustin, The Department has completed its review of the traffic impact study (TIS) for the proposed Baywood Gardens – Phase 3 (f.k.a. Woodlands) residential development. The TIS was prepared by The Traffic Group, Inc. (TTG), and is dated September 30, 2019. TTG prepared the report in a manner generally consistent with DelDOT’s Development Coordination Manual. The TIS evaluates the traffic impacts of the proposed development, proposed to be located on the south side of Long Neck Road (Delaware Route 23) and the west side of School Lane (Sussex Road 298) in Sussex County, Delaware. The proposed development would consist of 160 low-rise multi-family houses on an approximately 15.36-acre assemblage of parcels (Tax Parcels 234-23.00-273.01, 273.02, and 273.03). Two access points are proposed: one full access on School Lane (opposite of the Long Neck Shopping Center), and one rights-in / rights-out / lefts-out access on Long Neck Road (opposite of Greens Way). Construction is anticipated to be complete in 2024. The subject land is currently zoned CR-1 (Commercial) in Sussex County, and the developer plans to rezone the land to HR-1 (High-Density Residential) with an RPC (Residential Planned Community) overlay. DelDOT currently has one capital project within the area of study. The SR 24 at SR 5 / SR 23 Intersection Improvements Project (State Contract No. T201200903) includes the intersection of Delaware Route 24 / Indian Mission Road / Long Neck Road.
