The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development announces that the exit and entrance ramps of US 90 westbound at LA 318 will be closed on Saturday, February 17, to install asphalt surfacing on the roadway.

The work is estimated to take place from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., weather permitting.

The detour will include the North Service Road and the US 90 Interchanges at LA 668 and LA 83.

DOTD appreciates your patience and reminds you to please drive with caution and be on the lookout for work crews and their equipment.

DOTD apologizes for any inconvenience this necessary work may cause.

As part of the Geaux South program, current work underway is related to the $56 million design-build project that involves upgrading the existing US 90 and LA 318 signalized intersection to a full control of access, grade-separated interchange including the reconstruction of the US 90 frontage roads to provide local access to LA 318. Construction began in March 2016, and is estimated for completion in fall 2017.
