Railroad intersections to get maintenance

CSX begins maintenance on Decatur’s three railroad crossings, at Candler Street, McDonough Street and Atlanta Avenue, possibly as early as next week. The bulk of the work is railroad tie replacement, with each intersection expected to close for two to three days.

Drivers, cyclists and pedestrians will detour at either the East Lake Drive or Commerce Drive underpasses. The work is part of larger Atlanta-area rail maintenance that should take about two weeks.
