Two major roadways have been shut down where they cross CSX railroad tracks after the crossing gate mechanisms stopped working properly.
Officials have blocked off both New London Road and West Main Street at their respective CSX railway intersections. Repair teams have been sent out to fix the faulty equipment, though authorities have not provided a timeline for when motorists can expect the roads to reopen.
The closures affect traffic flow in the area as drivers must find alternate routes around the blocked crossings.
