I-20 Eastbound bridge over Red River in Bossier and Caddo Parishes.

This is to advise that on Thursday, July 12, 2018, the I-20 eastbound bridge over the Red River, in Bossier and Caddo parishes, will be restricted to two (2) lanes of traffic for one day between the hours of 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. In addition, the eastbound on-ramp from LA 1 north and south (Market St. and Spring St.) and the I-20 eastbound off-ramp to Traffic St. will be closed to traffic for routine bridge inspection.

Alternate Route: LA 1 (Spring and Market) traffic entering I-20 will need to detour to LA 3032 (Shreveport-Barksdale Blvd.) to US 71 (Barksdale Blvd).

The lane closure on I-20 over Red River will allow vehicles 14 feet wide or smaller to pass through the inspection zone. Larger vehicles must detour using LA 3094 to LA 1 to I-220.

Traffic exiting onto Traffic St. will need to detour to LA 3 (Benton Rd.) to LA 72 (Barksdale Blvd.).
