PIERRE, (KCCR) — As a part of upgrades to it’s system across the state, the Rapid City, Pierre and Eastern Railroad has been updating and replacing grade crossings along its route. Those replacement efforts will be moving to the crossing that just happens to be the only way in to the Farm Island Recreation area on Monday. Because of that, the South Dakota Department of Game, Fish and Parks is temporarily closing the Farm Island Rec area on Monday so the work can be completed. The closure will be short lived. Farm Island is expected to reopen to eight am on Tuesday November 4th. The closure will begin at approximately eight am Monday and last for approximately 24 hours.
