Nassau County, Florida – On behalf of CSX, the Nassau County Road Department is issuing a “Notice of Intent to Begin Construction” on the following railroad crossings due to repairs needed – All crossings could be closed from to 3-5 days. CSX will have rock staged at the crossings for first responders if they have to get across. These dates can change, with or without notice, due to unforeseen circumstances. These closures are a temporary but a necessary inconvenience for the maintenance and safety of the crossings.
