SONOMA - A portion of state Highway 37 near Sears Point in Sonoma County was reopened early Sunday morning after being closed to fix and repair train tracks in the area.

Repairs were made to the tracks on the Sonoma Marin Area Trail line crossing Highway 37 east of state Highway 121, also known as Arnold Drive.

Work by Caltrans was completed about seven hours ahead of schedule, allowing the portion to reopen at 4 a.m. Sunday.

According to the transit agency, due to heavy vehicle traffic and usage, the crossing required significant repairs, including reconstruction of the subgrade and the railroad track.
