In an interview Friday, Allen said he was headed home from work, driving in the left southbound on I-495 shortly after 5 p.m. He looked left as he crossed the river and noticed the northbound lanes were about a foot higher than his.
"I drive over that bridge every day. I've been doing it for 25 years," Allen says in the 911 recording.
"I just noticed on my way home the median strip is separating, like, about a foot difference between the two jersey barriers, in between the center of the road. I tried to get a hold of DelDOT. That's why I'm so long calling you. I can't get a hold of anybody."
