Malfunctioning railroad barriers cause road closure in Monroe, Monroe WI
Road ClosureRailroad barriers malfunction in Monroe, causing a road closure and traffic backups. City workers and police direct drivers to turn around and reroute traffic due to the barrier issues. Attempts to get an estimated repair time from the railroad were unsuccessful. The barriers continue to have problems, and there may be a full road closure due to insufficient manpower to manage the situation manually.
