CSX is continuing repairs to its railroad tracks in Lawrence, and some railroad crossing closures are occurring differently than the schedule previously provided to the City.

Here are the latest updates we have:

• 47th Street: Remains closed and is expected to reopen Wednesday.

The City is sharing updates as soon as we receive information from CSX. We appreciate your patience while this work is completed.

We’re sharing information about disaster assistance available through the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA), including low-interest loans that may help homeowners, renters, and businesses of all sizes recover from declared disasters.

If you or your business was affected by the flooding, please take a moment to review the flyers below for information about eligibility and available assistance.
