Apex - CSX Railroad was able to complete
repairs to its bridge over North Salem Street in Apex much faster than expected.
As a result, the section of the road closed earlier this week near Old Jenks
Road after an oversized piece of construction equipment hit the railroad bridge
is expected to open about 5 p.m. today.
Initial estimates were the repairs would take until late this month
to be completed, but CSX had a replacement structure available to expedite the
fix.
