If Franklin Street and / or Ohio Street are part of your daily route, you'll need to find a different way to go for a while as CSX has closed both railroad crossings for repairs as part of a maintenance plan announced in late-October.

Eyewitness News reported the closures Friday morning on Twitter, saying the Franklin Street crossing is closed until further notice while Ohio Street should re-open early next week barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Fortunately with Franklin Street, bypassing the crossing is relatively easy. Inconvenient, sure, but relatively easy by using either the Lloyd Expressway or Columbia Street to go over it. Ohio Street is a little more difficult with the Lloyd really being the only option.
