The outside lane of I-10 westbound from mile marker 108 (Bayou Teche) to mile marker 107 (Weigh Station) will be closed on Tuesday, August 11 at 8 p.m. until Wednesday, August 12 at 6 a.m., weather permitting.

This closure is necessary to allow crews to repair a damaged traffic impact attenuator.

The road will be open to regular traffic with no vehicle restrictions.

Emergency vehicles will have access to the area but may encounter delays. No detour.

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 September 2020.

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