The project consists of making safety improvements including high friction surface treatment, signing, plastic pavement markings, and related work at selected curve locations along the following routes:
• LA 44, Ascension Parish (5 curves in between LA 942 and LA 70)
• LA 37, East Feliciana Parish
• LA 411, Iberville Parish
• LA 18, St. James Parish
• LA 983, West Baton Rouge Parish
• LA 1, Jefferson and Lafourche Parishes
Work will begin on LA 44 on Thursday, November 30th. Work is expected to last approximately 2-3 weeks along this route, weather permitting. The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development advises motorists that there will be intermittent lane closures on LA 44 during construction. No oversized loads greater than 10’ wide will be allowed through the construction zone during lane closures.
DOTD appreciates your patience and reminds you to please drive with caution through the construction site and be on the lookout for work crews and their equipment.
