I-10 EB traffic shift from west of LA 108 to I-210 scheduled for TUESDAY in Calcasieu Parish
The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development announces that motorists can expect a traffic shift on I-10 eastbound from the I-210 interchange to west of the LA 108 interchange this evening, Tuesday, September 7, 2021.
The I-10 eastbound travel lanes will shift to the newly constructed lanes on the mainline, and will return to three lanes of traffic for the majority of the work zone. In this new phase, the right lanes in advance of the LA 108 and I-210 interchanges will be exit only. The through lane on the eastbound service road at LA 108 will be closed for construction access.
Alternating lane closures on I-10 eastbound from LA 108 to I-210 will be required to stripe the new lanes. Closure of the on-ramp from LA 108 to I-10 EB will also be closed and detour signs will be in place redirecting traffic. Lane closures will occur tonight, September 7 from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m.
Work continues on the median barrier, milling, overlay, guardrail, and drainage. The contractor has completed the replacement of both Maple Fork Bridges and widening of the mainline.
All dates and activity are weather dependent. The entire project is expected to be complete in fall 2021.
DOTD appreciates your patience and reminds you to please drive with extreme caution through the construction site and be on the lookout for work crews and their equipment.
