Lawrence County Route K in Aurora to close for railroad crossing improvements

(From MODOT)

TRAFFIC ALERT

Where: Lawrence County Route K (Elliott Avenue) at the railroad crossing between Olive Street and Mill Street in Aurora

When: ‘Round the clock from Thursday, Jan. 31, until Thursday, Feb. 14




Project Details:

Contractor making improvements at the Missouri & Northern Arkansas Railroad as part of a project to build a railroad overpass and complete other railroad crossing upgrades in Aurora

Once all railroad crossing improvements are made, the City of Aurora will apply to the Federal Railroad Administration to establish a quiet zone which means trains will no longer sound their warning horns while traveling between Route 39 and Elliot Avenue in Aurora

No signed detour is planned

Work on the Missouri Route 39 bridge over the Burlington Northern-Santa Fe Railroad remains suspended while the contractor awaits approval from BNSF of plans for work over and near the tracks
