Norfolk Southern Railway Co. is moving forward on one of two culverts it has planned to repair, while the second one will likely be on hold until the first of the year. “We have begun the first step in construction of the new culvert on the tributary location,” said company spokesman Rick Harris, “which is, of course, the most southern location of the two locations that we’re installing box culverts.” Norfolk Southern plans to install two lines of 9-foot-by-9-foot box culverts where Flowery Branch Creek flows under the railroad tracks; the project the company has started on is installing one 9-foot-by-9-foot box culvert at a tributary around 300 feet south of the creek.
