The old chemstrand rd crossing is ridiculous. Atleast 2 tankers have had piping broken on the bottom since the crossing has reopened
People are complaining about old chemstrand crossing…. You’re supposed to slow down when crossing…. One person said “you got to slow down to 3 miles per hour “ well yea…if you think it’s a dukes of hazard jump you’re going to fast…SLOW down
This may or may not help. https://www.csx.com/index.cfm/about-us/contact-us/
The crossing at Old Chemstrand is definitely a lot worse than it ever was before. I agree with the other statements. It is only a matter of time before this causes bad accidents. CSX needs to go back and fix this crossing right for public safety sake. To leave it the way it is now, shows willful negligence of driver’s safety and should not be tolerated.
Thank you for being the only news or government site that’s keeping the public informed on this.
Old Chemstrand is terrible. In order to drive over safe the speed has to be less than 3 mph or you are hitting the ceiling or launching the car off the road. Please fix it right
Crossing at old Chemstrand road needs a redo really bad before someone gets launch off the road
Yes, the Old Chemstrand road intersection is interesting to say the least! However, how in the world could it be corrected? It has been that way for years.
Only a short matter of time before there is an accident at the Old Chemstrand Road crossing. The Dukes of Hazard would be impressed at the launch ramp CSX just created. Quite possibly the most dangerous crossing I’ve ever seen.
