Baton Rouge- The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development announces that work on phase II of the Pecue Lane/ I-10 Interchange Project in Baton Rouge is progressing.
Crews are currently working on constructing the Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) Wall on the north side of I-10, as well as embankment and base course on the south side of I-10 for the new bridge.
The second phase is a $13.6 million project that consists of building MSE Walls on both sides of I-10 and replacing the existing two lane bridge with two multi-lane bridges. This is part of a multi-phase interchange project in East Baton Rouge City Parish Government’s Green Light Plan, a transportation improvement program designed to construct road projects throughout the Parish.
Construction began August 2019 and is anticipated to be completed late summer 2021, weather dependent.
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.
