Railroad crossing repair to begin next week on US-93 near Filer
SHOSHONE -- Work to reconstruct a railroad crossing is scheduled to begin Monday, Oct. 22 on US-93 (near milepost 42), just north of the US-93/US-30 interchange. The project will improve the safety of the crossing.
During construction, crews will remove damaged railroad crossing planks and ties. Structural material will be used to reinforce the base material and fill any voids. This project also will include removing and replacing asphalt in the surrounding area.
Traffic will be reduced to one lane in either direction during the project. Motorists may encounter flaggers and should anticipate reduced speeds in the construction zone.
Work is being performed by Eastern Idaho Railroad, and is expected to continue through the end of December.
