From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
U.S. Route 9 Business is a business route off U.S. Route 9 in Lewes, Sussex County, Delaware. The route was designated to preserve the old alignment of U.S. Route 9 in Lewes when it was rerouted to bypass Lewes on Delaware Route 1 and the Theodore C. Freeman Highway to the south. U.S. Route 9 Business runs from the Five Points intersection where it intersects U.S. Route 9 and Delaware Route 1. It then passes through the heart of Lewes on Savannah Road where it crosses the Lewes and Rehoboth Canal on a drawbridge. When Savannah Road reaches the Delaware Bay, U.S. Route 9 Business turns south to meet U.S. Route 9 near the terminal of the Cape May-Lewes Ferry.
