For all of you who have been riding your bike and wiped out on the railroad tracks by Blair/Williamson, we have good news!
Interim repairs to the railroad crossing of Wilson Street at the intersection of John Nolen Drive, Blair Street and Williamson Street will begin Monday July 30 and are expected to continue until Wednesday August 8th. The railroad crossing will be repaved, and a cut-in at the island will allow for a straighter crossing of the tracks by bicyclists. A bike lane will also be marked on westbound Williamson and Wilson Streets in this area. Here’s a drawing of these changes.
