LANE CLOSURES: US 80 eastbound & westbound bridges over Fifi Bayou, Bossier Parish


The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development advises motorists that beginning on Monday, October, 5, 2020, the eastbound and westbound inside lanes of the US 80 bridges over Fifi Bayou near Haughton in Bossier Parish will be closed.

Traffic will be reduced to one lane in each direction.

These lane closures are necessary to allow the contractor to remove the current diversion road and construct the new diversion road related to the removal and replacement of the bridges over Fifi Bayou.

This traffic configuration is anticipated to last approximately three (3) weeks, with the entire project on schedule to be complete in Spring 2021, weather permitting.
