To Our Customers,

A bridge outage between Lewisville and Texarkana, Texas, is impacting operations in that region. Our Engineering and Operating teams are working to repair damages and restore service.

As a result of the impassable route, we have issued embargo UP106022 that will impact the following:

  • Interchange shipments at Eagle Pass and Laredo (both directions) KCSM and FXE.
  • Volume traversing Northeast Texas, Central Arkansas, and Northwest Louisiana.
  • This embargo does not include intermodal shipments.

Our team is working on a reroute plan and an estimate for when the bridge will reopen, as well as the associated delays customers can expect.

We appreciate your patience as we safely work to restore service to this area. Please reference our Embargo page or the AAR Embargo System for additional details. If you have any questions, please contact Customer Care & Support at 800-272-8777 or your Union Pacific representative.
