There will be a detour for drivers approaching the crossing from both the south and north side of Peart Road.  Directional signs will be posted for drivers to follow.

Please be alert to possible traffic delays. Drivers are urged to obey the speed limit and all posted signs and barricades while traveling through these construction zones.
