Wednesday, December 20, 2017 at 4:16:56 PM
The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) announces that the right lane of I-10 westbound @ LA 347 overpass will be closed on Wednesday, December 20, beginning at 8:00 p.m. until Thursday, December 21, at 6:00 a.m., for emergency roadway repairs.
There are no restrictions for permit loads.
DOTD apologizes for any inconvenience to the traveling public and encourages motorists to lookout for crews and their equipment.
This work is related to the FASTLANE I-10 widening project (State Project No. H.003014). This $54.7 million project will involve pavement replacement within the existing the lanes in each direction for 2.7 miles along I-10 from LA 347 to the base of the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge. An additional lane will be added in the westbound direction.
With the help of the FASTLANE grant, this is the second of three projects to reconstruct and widen the I-10 corridor from I-49 to the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge.
The project began in July 2017 and is estimated for completion in 2020.
