CSX Rail Bridge
CSX Rail Bridge over King Street and Commonwealth Ave. Maintenance Update
The rail bridges over King Street and Commonwealth Avenue, in the vicinity of the King Street Metro station, are owned and maintained by CSX. In February 2021, it was reported to the City that a number of pieces of wood had fallen from the bridge, resulting in a temporary closure of King Street. The City has worked closely with CSX to investigate the cause of the issue, to ensure proper repairs are made, and that the bridge remains in safe condition. Correspondence regarding this effort can be found below.
