Cosnino Road Railroad Crossing To Close For Maintenance Work Next Week

The Cosnino Road railroad crossing will be closed next week for maintenance work. Coconino County officials say the Burlington Northern and Sante Fe Railway Company will close the crossing from 5:30 a.m. Monday, December 1st through 5 p.m. Friday, December 6th. The five-day closure is necessary so work crews can replace the rails at the crossing and conduct maintenance work. County work crews will place signage for information regarding the closure to the area community, schools and emergency services and first responders. Motorists will be diverted to other Interstate-40 access points. The closure is subject to change due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances.
