Marble Falls traffic to be re-routed for road upgrades around tracks
MARBLE FALLS— Closures lasting for up to three weeks at Avenue N to make street repairs at the railroad tracks will mean detours for motorists starting Oct. 10.
City staff said Avenue N will be closed at Second Street south to Johnson Street, possibly through early November.

The area includes the J.M. Huber Corp. on the main thoroughfare to Meadowlakes.
Those changes will limit wear and tear on the road while also reducing dust, officials said. The plant in the heart of the city is located near two parks and several residences.
Huber, a mining company, is helping foot the bill for the improvements.
Crews will perform the upgrades near and along the railroad lines just north of Meadowlakes.
The alternate routes are:
• Southbound Avenue N traffic detours right along Second Street to Avenue S or left along Second Street to Avenue J through Johnson Park.
• Northbound Avenue N traffic detours left along Johnson Street to Avenue S or right along Johnson Street to Avenue J through Johnson Park.
