The City of Douglas has been notified by CSX contractors of upcoming rail closures expected in March.  CSX Transportation will have a rail team, a surfacing team, and two tie teams working between Ware Co. and  Ben Hill Co., starting March 3rd to March 28th to provide necessary maintenance and/or emergency repairs. This will require a total closure of the railroad crossings which means no traffic will be allowed across the track until the work is complete.

The following crossings in the City of Douglas and Coffee County will be affected in some way on various dates and times during the estimated repair time of March 3 through March 28, 2025: Beach Rd., Scotch Pine Rd., Scott Rd., Cody Rd., Sessoms Rd., Jim Meeks Rd., Meeks Cemetery, Johnson St., N. Liberty St., Coffee St., Brunswick Ave., Henry Rowell Rd., J C Harper Rd., Whipporwill Rd., Shell Bell Rd., Opatut Rd., Willy Anderson Rd., Clyde Kirkland Rd., Wendell Sears Rd., Victor Bray Lane, Lupo Lane, S. Fales Ave., S. McDonald Ave, S Pearl Ave, Madison Ave, Peterson Ave, S Manilla Ave, S College Ave, S Daughtry Ave, Shirley Ave, Sinkhole Rd., Barrington Rd, Salem Church Rd, Chaney Rd, Mitchell Rd, Bushnell Rd, Palmetto Rd, Dennis Harper Rd, Pilgrim’s Pride Poultry,  Jowers Crossing, New Hope Rd, Farm Crossing, Jowers Lane, and Eagle Rd.

With four CSX teams working, there will be lots of moving pieces. Once the rail crossing is closed, expect the closure to last at least three days, up to five days. On the crossings that are one-way in/out with residents behind them, CSX will try to get these worked and completed in 12 hours.

This will necessitate rerouting traffic.  Signage will be in place marking detour routes. Please note the expected closure date(s).  If the City of Douglas is notified of any changes in the estimated schedule, citizens will be notified. Please understand that changes are highly likely to occur in this field of work.  Please note that any/all dates are subject to change due to weather and/or other unforeseen conditions.  Motorists should anticipate extended travel times and delays.  Please avoid this closure area if at all possible.
