U.S. Rep. Andrew Clyde announced on Thursday that officials from Buford and Norfolk Southern have reached an agreement to reduce blocked railroad crossings in the city.
Clyde participated in talks between the railroad company and the city, with Buford officials saying the congressman’s office facilitated the negotiations. The agreement addresses an issue facing many communities: trains parked on tracks and blocking local residents and first responders from driving across railroad crossings for long periods of time.
