Students at the University of Virginia are going to have to find a new shortcut to get to grounds. The City of Charlottesville plans to build a fence around the railroad tracks that cut through the Corner district. Many people cross over the tracks every day as a shortcut, but it's against the law to trespass on the railroad property. The city says it's a safety concern, so the plan is to build a permanent, 7-foot fence along the tracks from Rugby Road to 14th Street to prevent people from jumping the tracks.
