Douglas Street Railroad Crossing Closed to Traffic for Repairs

Post Date:10/02/2023 5:00 PM

**UPDATE** 

Please be advised that starting Tuesday October 3, 2023 at 7:00 a.m., Union Pacific Railroad will begin repair work on a developing sinkhole at the Union Pacific (UP) Railroad crossing and Douglas Street. The sinkhole, caused by a failed storm sewer line, will require a full street closure of both the northbound and southbound travel lanes of Douglas Street at the railroad crossing.

Weather permitting, the repair work is expected to be completed by the end of October. The work was initially expected to be completed by October 10th but coordination with utility providers has caused some construction delays.

Temporary street signage and barricades will be set-up to detour through traffic to Aviation Boulevard around the full street closure. Both lanes of traffic on Douglas Street will reopen as soon as the repairs are completed. 

If you have questions, please call the City's main line at 310-524-2300. As always, thank you for your cooperation.
