PEMBROKE, Georgia — At the request of Georgia Central Railroad, the Georgia Department of Transportation is closing a grade crossing on State Route 204 between the east and west intersection of Arden Loop Circle near Ellabell in Bryan County for three days.
SR 204 will be closed at the railroad crossing, and traffic will be detoured to Arden Loop Circle from 9 a.m. Wednesday, July 10, until 5 p.m. Friday, July 12. Officials said the closure is necessary for railroad crossing improvements.
Georgia DOT maintenance crews will install the road closure with a detour in place as vehicular traffic cannot cross the railroad tracks during this work. Motorists will be able to access businesses, schools, and residences in the area up to the work zone.
The roadway will reopen early if the work is completed ahead of schedule or could possibly be closed longer if weather delays the work.
