Update from @villageofbarrington
Pedestrian Gate Update & Traffic Alert
The Canadian National Railway (CN) will be working at its Main Street crossing today, March 21, through Sunday, March 23 to upgrade its infrastructure.
🔧 What’s Happening?
CN will be removing and replacing the existing gates and warning devices. The most impactful work is expected Saturday and Sunday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. During this time, delays are possible as new gates are installed.
🚗 Traffic Advisory:
• Flaggers will be on-site to assist with vehicle flow.
• Expect intermittent delays—please plan ahead and consider alternate routes.
🚶 Pedestrian Safety Upgrades:
Once completed, the new roadway gates at the northeast and southwest corners will also provide pedestrian separation from the tracks. Later this summer, CN will install additional equipment and wiring that will allow for the installation of pedestrian gates at the remaining two (northwest and southeast) corners.
✅ Why this matters: This weekend’s upgrades will help speed up the installation of remaining safety enhancements later this year.
We appreciate your patience as these important improvements are made.
Happy St Patrick’s Day!!! 🍀
Love this fun scene @stanneschoolbarrington from @nbtardif
