It’s adding much more time to their commutes and trips to drop the kids off at school.
Paige Chiasson, lives on Plumer Rd and says she has been dealing with this railroad construction site, since yesterday.
According to Chiasson, a portion of Plummer Road is currently blocked off due to this construction.
Everyone who lives on this road typically crosses these railroad tracks to go anywhere.
Chiasson says neighbors now have to go through Callahan adding more time for trips.
“It took me an hour to take my kids to school, and they go to school right off of Broward. It usually takes 20 minutes, and it took an hour, said Chiasson.
Chiasson says this construction also raises even more concerns.
“Emergency vehicles can’t get through. So, if there is a fire or someone needs medical attention, nobody is going to be able to get through,” said Chiasson.
