The north and southbound I-27 frontage roads, between Erskine Street and Municipal Drive, in Lubbock will be closed to traffic beginning Tuesday, May 3, to allow the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad (BNSF) Company to safely perform repair work on the railroad crossing.
Traffic will be detoured around the area.
The repairs include replacing the damaged existing rubber planks and replacing them with concrete planks. BNSF is expected to wrap-up the work by the end of day Friday, May 6, and will take place weather permitting.
