Mississippi city was not ready for grade-crossing work, creating a commuter nightmare Written by Bill Wilson, Editor-in-Chief
Elmwood Park, Ill., is looking to build an underpass at Grand Avenue to eliminate a dangerous grade crossing.
Operation Lifesaver, Inc.
Miscommunication in Picayune, Miss., had both commuters and railroad workers red-faced, but for entirely different reasons. Work at grade crossings on Jan. 11 caused instant traffic issues after the company behind the maintenance failed to notify the city of the closures.
Road Safe Traffic Systems, which was hired by Norfolk Southern, blocked a portion of several railroad crossings so crews could replace rail that was over 60 years old and smooth out the section. However, a call was never made to city officials notifying them that work was going to start next week. The result left commuters angry and the company behind the miscommunication a little embarrassed.
