DOTD to hold public meeting concerning new flashing yellow left turn arrow signals in Natchitoches Parish
The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development will hold a public meeting concerning the upgrade of designated traffic signals across Natchitoches Parish to include flashing yellow left turn arrow signals.
The meeting will be held in an open house format where attendees can ask questions and receive information regarding the new signals and their locations.
The flashing yellow arrows will replace a solid green bulb to indicate the motorist should yield to oncoming traffic during a left turn.
Flashing yellow arrow signals have been shown to increase safety and reduce traffic delays. The new left turn signals will only be installed at intersections where a protected left turn already exists.
The public meeting will be held at the following time and location:
Thursday, May 11, 2023
4:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.
City of Natchitoches
City Council Chambers
700 2nd Street

Members of the public are encouraged to attend to learn more about how the new traffic signals will function.
