I-10 westbound from mile marker 117 to mile marker 116.5 (Atchafalaya Basin Bridge) will have alternating nightly lane closures beginning on Wednesday, November 18 at 8:00 p.m. until Friday, November 20 at 6:00 a.m., weather permitting.
These closures are required in order to complete the asphalt overlay on the project.
The roadway will be open to regular traffic with no vehicle restrictions.
Emergency vehicles will have access to the area but may encounter delays. No detour will be posted.
This work is related to the FASTLANE I-10 widening project (State Project Number H.003014). This $54.7 million project will involve pavement replacement within the existing lanes in each direction for 2.7 miles along I-10 from LA 347 to the base of the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge. An additional lane will be added in the westbound direction.
With the help of the FASTLANE grant, this is the second of three projects to reconstruct and widen the I-10 corridor from I-49 to the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge.
The project began in July 2017 and is estimated for completion in March 2021.
