'Delaware Route 18' is a state highway located in Sussex County, Delaware. It runs from Maryland Route 318 at the Maryland border east of Federalsburg, Maryland to U.S. Route 9 in Georgetown, Delaware. Delaware Route 18 overlaps Delaware Route 404 from its intersection with that highway south of Bridgeville to the eastern termiuns in Georgetown, where Route 404 continues eastward to Five Points on US 9.
Up until the 1970's, Delaware Route 18's eastern terminus was located in Lewes. However, it was truncated to Georgetown when U.S. Route 9 was brought into Delaware by way of the Cape May-Lewes Ferry, replacing Delaware Route 18 from Lewes to Georgetown and Delaware Route 28 from Georgetown to Laurel.
