Lincoln Road track crossing to close for repairs

The MBTA recently notified Lincoln officials that they will be making rail improvements at the Lincoln Station railroad crossing, which will require the closure of Lincoln Road at the railroad tracks from Saturday, Aug. 20 at 5 a.m. until Monday, Aug. 22 at 4 p.m. Area businesses will remain open, and trains will be running on a normal schedule. There will be detours in place to reroute traffic, as well as additional public safety personnel hired by the MBTA so public safety will not be compromised.
