TxDOT’s Childress District is closing all three railroad crossings into Hedley from US 287 today. The news comes after another fatal accident this morning in the highway construction zone in that city.
TxDOT says travelers needing to access Hedley from US 287 are advised to take FM 1260 east of Clarendon then take FM 2471 to either FM 1932 or State Highway 273. Justice of the Peace Pat White also advises travelers coming from Memphis can take CR 28 near the Giles rest area and then CR W to enter Hedley.
