Rebuilding the heavily-traveled Norfolk Southern railroad bridge in Brunswick is a priority for Governor Mike Parson, who toured the area last week. But Parson says crews can’t even get to the area yet.

Parson says residents in Brunswick can’t catch a break.

There were no injuries when the bridge collapsed due to a debris strike caused by heavy rainfall on October 1. Due to the collapse, Norfolk Southern has suspended freight train service between Moberly and Kansas City along that route. Parson says state officials are doing everything they can to get needed resources to Brunswick.
