Starting Wednesday, October 2, CW&W Contractors and Company will be doing maintenance work on Kansas City Southern Railroad’s tracks.
They will be performing work on the tracks crossing 5th Street (just west of Murphy Boulevard) on Wednesday, October 2; tracks crossing 9th and 12th Streets (near Missouri and Iowa Avenues) on Thursday, October 3; and tracks crossing 15th Street (between Wisconsin and Illinois Avenues) on Friday October 4.
Work will begin each day at 7 a.m. and continue until work is finished at that crossing. Work along the 15th Street crossing, may take longer than one day due to weather and conditions for asphalt work. If this occurs, the road will be closed overnight, and crews would finish work on Saturday morning. Message boards will be placed to alert drivers to this upcoming closure.
Businesses in the area will be accessible during the construction period. Detours will be in place and drivers will need to use alternate routes. While in the area, drivers are urged to use extreme caution.
The City appreciates the public’s patience while this work is being done to improve the crossing. For questions, please contact Dakota Rusk, Traffic Engineer with the City of Joplin, at 417-624-0820, ext. 598.
