The purrpose of the LA 1088 Corridor Study is to reduce existing congestion and accommodate future traffic demands along 3.5 miles of the LA 1088 corridor from LA 59 to I-12.
DOTD is in the final stages of the Environmental Assessment document and a link will be provided to the document once it is approved. Excerpts from the document are provided below.
Improvements to the corridor will be broken into the 5 following phases:
1. Roundabouts at Soult St. and Trinity Dr.
2. Roundabout at Forest Brook Blvd. and required roadway widening
3. Roundabouts at I-12 Intersections
4. Roadway widening from I-12 to Forest Brook Blvd.
5. Roundabouts at LA 59, Jackson St., and Spring. Blvd.
The current cost for all phases is estimated to be $36,500,000. This estimate includes right-of-way acquisition, utility relocations, environmental mitigation, engineering, and construction.
