Traffic will be stopped Thursday on Route 837 at the Boswell Oil railroad crossing in Dravosburg so that Norfolk Southern railroad crews can make repairs.

A district spokesman for the state Department of Transportation said the work will occur between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m., weather-permitting. The traffic stoppages will be brief and flag crews will be on hand to help motorists, the spokesman said.

The work is not being done by PennDOT but the agency is announcing it as a public service, he said.
