The Central Delaware Chamber of Commerce hosted a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for Century Engineering on Thursday, September 12th, at 11 am. The ceremony was held at 550 S. Bay Road, in Dover. Chamber members, ambassadors, and staff members joined the team at Century in celebrating their new location.
Century Engineering has been a driving force in the Dover area for 32 years. Being awarded the Design Management for the major SR1, US13 Relief Route project marked the start of their operation in Delaware. They opened for business in a small townhouse in downtown Dover with a staff of six. Quickly outgrowing that space, they relocated to a new, much larger office (10,000 sq. ft.) just north of Dover. Steady growth over the years has forced them to relocate again, moving their team of over 130 professionals to their new 25,000 square foot facility on Bay Road.
