UPDATE: THIS CLOSURE HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO INCLEMENT WEATHER.

The on and off ramps of I-10 eastbound at LA 328 (Rees Street) in Breaux Bridge will be closed on Saturday, March 9 at 1:00 a.m. until Monday, March 11 at 6:00 a.m., weather permitting.

This closure is in preparation for the upcoming I-10 eastbound traffic switch from mile marker 104 to mile marker 109.

The detour for I-10 eastbound traffic trying to take Exit 109 - LA 328 in Breaux Bridge will be detoured to Exit 115 – LA 347 (Henderson/Cecilia) then back onto I-10 westbound to Exit 109 – LA 328 in Breaux Bridge.

The detour for north and southbound traffic on LA 328 (Rees Street) will be detoured to I-10 westbound to Exit 104 – Louisiana Avenue and back onto I-10 eastbound.

The $124.7 million I-10 widening project will involve widening a 7.11-mile section from I-49 to Breaux Bridge (State Project Number H.003003). The project will include pavement replacement within the existing lanes and the construction of one additional lane in each direction along I-10 from I-49 to LA 328 (Breaux Bridge).

The project began in May 2017 and is estimated for completion in fall 2019.
