Temporary Railroad Closures in Walnut Hill Area to Begin Feb. 6

Railroad crossings at Deer Run Lane and County Road 99 will experience temporary closures beginning Friday, Feb. 6 while crews with Alabama & Gulf Coast Railway perform maintenance on the railroad tracks.

Deer Run Lane closures begin Friday, Feb. 6, and County Road 99 closures will begin Saturday, Feb. 7. Deer Run Lane will open to traffic via a temporary gravel path when crews are not working.

Both railroad crossings are expected to reopen by Tuesday, Feb. 10, weather permitting.

Residents, pedestrians, and emergency vehicles will have access to properties within the work area at all times; however, there may be short periods when a driveway or entrance may be blocked temporarily as equipment and materials are moved during construction.

If other roadway closures are necessary or work is delayed, another notice will be issued.
