BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A malfunctioning railroad crossing arm at the tracks on Palmetto Park Road just west of I-95 is causing big problems Monday morning.

Boca Raton Police issued an advisory just before 7 a.m. Monday encouraging motorists to find other routes. It’s unclear what led to the crossing arm malfunction or how long it will take until a repair team can fix the issue. Sometimes it’s a matter of minutes. Sometimes it’s hours. We received multiple “complaints” when we did not alert about a closure last week, so we’re publishing this right away.

If you normally drive west of I-95 on Palmetto Park Road, prepare for delays. Check back for updates.
