So, they are going to close the current end of Dunnsville Road?  That gets rid of one entrance / exit for the Cumby's.  I wonder if they were informed previously that this would be the case.  It's going to make getting in and out of there more difficult.  I thought the plan was to keep both open.  Isn't there a stop sign on Dunnsville leading up to the new intersection with a stop sign pointed back at Cumby's?  I guess that was wasted money, if that road will be closed.

        That "stub" section of road will remain.  It was part of a negotiated agreement between Cumberland Farms and Golub during initial project review.  The reasons were as you stated prior.

I guess it just doesn't make sense to me to close any of that area.  The reason I would say is that the entrance on what is now Dunnsville Road was for any traffic coming from Dunnsville Road.  Now, that same traffic will still be forced out to Route 7, where they'll be coming in the other entrance anyway.  Maybe it's just me, but the idea of keeping the portion that goes by Cumberland Farms open makes no sense if you close off the access directly to/from that piece to the rest of Dunnsville Road.

anyone know the movie ANTS???????.....it's a road that unfortunately or fortunately folks live near and knew what it could become......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
