REMINDER: Upcoming closure on the Black Bayou Bridge – Calcasieu Parish
The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development announces that on Monday, July 19, 2021, the Black Bayou Bridge on LA 384 over the Intracoastal Waterway will close to vehicle traffic for two weeks. The closure is expected to end on August 1, 2021.
This closure is necessary for the contractor to complete the installation of the new electric winch system. All vehicles will need to detour to the Grand Lake Bridge on LA 384 in Cameron Parish. Motorists are advised all dates and activities are weather dependent.
Marine traffic will not be impacted by the closure.
