Work on West Newton railroad crossing will cause detour
Traffic will be detoured around a section of West Newton’s Robertson Street next week so CSX crews can perform maintenance on a railroad crossing.
Work is set to begin at 8:30 a.m. on Monday and is expected to wrap up by 3:30 p.m. on Thursday.
The street will be closed west of Blackburn Street, near the Giant Eagle supermarket.
A marked detour will follow North Second Street, Plummer School Road, Herminie-West Newton Road, Lowber Road and Sutersville Road.
