    Map of Bridgeville (Delaware)

    Bridgeville sits at the intersection of Routes 13 and 404 in Sussex County, and for most is a town passed by on the way to the beach. With the construction of the Route 404 bypass some years ago, most travelers now miss the historic downtown area.

    Get around

    [edit]

    While it has no mass transit, the town has some paved roads that extend throughout the entire local area, facilitating travel by car or bike to the many points of interest in Bridgeville.

    Police officers will enforce the traffic code and patrol the area 24 hours a day.
