Delaware Route 37 (DE 37) is a state highway in New Castle County, Delaware. The route runs from DE 273 in Pleasantville northeast to U.S. Route 202 (US 202) and DE 141 near the Wilmington Airport. The road runs through suburban neighborhoods before passing along the edge of Wilmington Airport, where it provides access to business parks. The Airport Road portion of DE 37 was originally a dirt road that was paved by 1942. DE 37 was assigned to its current alignment by 1985.
DE 37 heads to the northeast from DE 273 on the two-lane, undivided Airport Road. It passes through suburban neighborhoods and then intersects DE 58 (Churchmans Road) in a commercial area. Past the DE 58 intersection, the route widens into a four-lane divided highway and forms the northwestern boundary of the Wilmington Airport, with residential areas on the opposite side of the road. After the boundary with the airport, Airport Road splits to the northwest and DE 37 becomes Commons Boulevard, and it passes through the New Castle Corporate Commons, a business park located adjacent to the Wilmington Airport. It continues northeast to its terminus at US 202 and DE 141.
DE 37 has an annual average daily traffic count ranging from a high of 22,752 vehicles at the US 202/DE 141 intersection to a low of 9,152 vehicles where it splits from Airport Road. None of DE 37 is part of the National Highway System.
