A few Knox streets are closed for railroad crossing maintenance. City officials say the crossings at Shield Street, Bower Street, Portland Street, and 300 East should reopen by the end of the week.
Railroad Crossing Complaints Discussed by Knox City Council
Knox Mayor Rick Chambers has been getting several complaints from motorists about the U.S 35 railroad crossing in the city.
A resident recently came into City Hall with an estimate to replace a hubcap lost as a result of the rough crossing. Mayor Chambers told the resident that the City does not maintain that crossing. The railroad crossing is under the jurisdiction of Norfolk Southern and the Indiana Department of Transportation. Those experiencing damage need to contact those two entities to submit a claim or report a complaint.
