SR 9 to remain closed at SR 20 in Sedro-Woolley while BNSF repairs damage to railroad crossing
SEDRO-WOOLLEY – State Route 9 will remain closed between SR 20 (milepost 55) and West State Street/Trail Road (milepost 64) in Sedro-Woolley, while repairs are made to a rail crossing signal box that was damaged on Nov. 1.
The signals box, which facilitates safe operations of the railroad crossing, is owned by BNSF Railway. It was damaged beyond repair after a collision Saturday, Nov. 1. The Washington State Department of Transportation also owns equipment that must be replaced and is coordinating this effort with BNSF. Crews are also making temporary adjustments to signal timing on SR 20 while the intersection is closed.
There is no estimate for the roadway to reopen. In the meantime, people can use West State Street/Trail Road as a short detour around this closure.
