Lake Norman Publications is reporting that planned road additions on Mooresville’s south side will require the elimination of some long-existing railroad crossings. The proposed roads will require new crossings of Norfolk Southern Railway tracks, and Norfolk Southern policies stipulate when new crossings evolve, existing crossings in the same jurisdiction must close.
The Mills Avenue railroad crossing, linking Broad and Main streets near Merino Mill and Moor Park, is on the list for potential closure. Photo credit: Lee Sullivan, Lake Norman Publishing
