Today, June 30th, KCS Railroad Company will begin changing the locations of their signals at the tracks on La. 73 near Airline Highway. The work will take place without any lance closures.

Workers will move traffic from the inside lanes to new outside pavement areas. The .9 mile section stretches from La. 621 to the Prairieville Volunteer Fire Station. The construction will remove the old roadway and build new pavement in the area.

If weather permits, workers will install new sewer and drainage pipe between Post Office Road and the railroad tracks. This was postponed so a power pole could be moved. The pole was moved last Sunday. The contractor installed sewer and drainage pipe across Post Office Road last Monday and Tuesday.
