Repairs at railroad crossings in New Kent and Charles City will result in detours and alternative routes for drivers starting Jan. 27.

CSX Railroad has announced that repairs will be made to a plethora of railroad crossings that will result in roads being closed. The company has said that work for each location should last approximately one day and reopen upon completion of the repairs. Some busier intersections will see a longer time for repairs.
