Work under way to fix railroad crossing
Crews are under way working on repairs to a troubling railroad
crossing at Third and Sally streets.
The city is helping to fund the work, slated for completion this
month.
The work includes the installation of new curbs and gutters,
sidewalks, paving and the installation of barricades closing a
section of Sally Street south of Third. Two water lines under the
tracks will also be replaced as part of the $180,000 project
– $55,800 of which will be reimbursed by the California Public
Utilities Commission.
The permanent street closure affects a few hundred feet of Sally
Street. Near the project, a one-way alley is re-routed so it
accommodates only westbound traffic.
Union Pacific did paving work on its tracks on Third, Fourth and
South streets near the intersection of McCray Street last year,
because they were high-traffic areas and because citizens
complained about the bumpy crossings.
