Alternate Routes When Train Blocks the Standard Route
PDF
In the event that a train is blocking the usual route along Highway 11, there are two alternative ways to reach your destination. Once you turn onto either of these roads, Google Maps will automatically reroute you based on current traffic and conditions:
Option 1:Turn near the Riceville Post Office onto County Road 79(in Riceville).
Option 2:For those coming from Calhoun, turn onto County Road 163 at Bowater Credit Union.
After turning onto either of these roads, Google Maps will update your route accordingly to guide you around the obstruction. These alternative routes are effective and designed to help you reach your destination smoothly when the train is on the tracks.
