HASTINGS, Neb. (KSNB) - It’s nice to see the snow melt, but it can cause problems on a gravel road.

The City of Hastings Tuesday closed West South Street between Laird Avenue and Marian Road in southwest Hastings due to muddy conditions. That gravel road is just south of the Burlington-Northern railroad tracks.

A city spokesperson said the street department closed the road as a precaution. It will remain closed until it dries out and conditions improve.
