Highway
Review:
Continuing from Maryland (where the highway is MD 279), DE 2
serves the Newark and Wilmington areas. A business spur of the
route goes through downtown Newark, while the actual highway
bypasses the home city of the University of Delaware. DE 2 is
duplexed with DE 4 south of Newark and with DE 72 east of the
city.
