Reminder: Today is the day that the Franklin Street CSX crossing is supposed to be closed for repairs. If your trip involves that stretch of Franklin, a full detour is highly recommended. Trying to make lefts across traffic through that stretch off of the side streets creates really long back ups, and dangerous conditions. Streets like Ohio and Woodland are highly recommended.

Oh Great, I was hoping that crossing would be fixed soon, you can only go about 2 MPH over it without worrying about tearing your vehicle up.

The press release announcing the closing of the Franklin St CSX crossing is now out. Again, remember to use the main arteries around this crossing if possible. Streets like Woodland and Ohio are highly recommended, as using the secondary streets and trying to make a left across Franklin can be nearly impossible at many intersections.
