The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is reminding area drivers that a railroad crossing on North Kendall Avenue in Bradford will temporarily close Friday.
The closure is necessary so the Genesee & Wyoming/Buffalo & Pittsburgh Railroad can make improvements to the crossing. During the work, a detour will be in place.
The closure will begin on Friday and last through Nov. 10. During the closure, a 2-½ mile detour will be in place.
Northbound drivers will follow a detour using Route 4005 (Main Street/High Street), Route 346, Route 219, and Route 4013 (Seaward Avenue).
Southbound drivers will follow a detour using Route 219, Route 346, and Route 4005 (Main Street/High Street).
Work at the crossing will consist of surface removal, reconstruction, and replacement, sidewalk removal and replacement, and paving of the crossing surface. Work is expected to be complete by evening on Nov. 10. All work is weather and schedule dependent.
