New railroad crossing arm to improve safety in Moberly

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)
A new crossing arm will be installed in Moberly as part of a project to make crossing safer.
Norfolk Southern Railroad will be adding a cross arm to Coates St. westbound lane to keep drivers from stopping between the two sets of tracks.
This means Moulton St. traffic will now be one-way going north from Coates to Farror. It will return to two-way traffic after Farror.
The city will also be constructing new sidewalks across Coates. Norfolk Southern Railroad will install the railguards.
After construction is done, the city will paint angled parking spots along half of Moulton to allow for more parking for the nearby stores.
Work is expected to be done in early December.
