Description

There is a group of trees at the north west corner of the railroad tracks at Jahnke road. I work for CSX Railroad and we believe these trees create a hazard that could involve the tracks. They are blocking vehicle views when driving west on Jahnke. This causes the drivers to cross the tracks on the wrong side of the road. This causes a potential traffic accident involving the tracks. We just had a vehicle knockdown our Crossing Gate/Mast on the west side of the tracks yesterday.
