INTERMITTENT RAMP CLOSURES: I-20 major rehab project, Bossier Parish BOSSIER CITY – The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development advises motorists that the following intermittent ramp closures will take place as part of the ongoing I-20 major rehabilitation project in Bossier Parish.
- Monday, December 15, 2025 – I-20 westbound on-ramp from Old Minden Road
- Tuesday, December 16, 2025 – I-20 westbound on-ramp from Old Minden Road (if needed)/I-20 westbound off-ramp to Airline Drive (not at the same time)
- Wednesday, December 17, 2025 – I-20 westbound off-ramp to Airline Drive
- Thursday, December 18, 2025 – I-20 westbound off-ramp to Airline Drive/I-20 westbound on-ramp from Airline Drive (Not at the same time)
- Friday, December 19, 2025 – I-20 westbound off-ramp to Airline Drive/I-20 westbound on-ramp from Airline Drive (Not at the same time)
These ramp closures will take place individually (no two ramps will be closed at the same time) from approximately 9:00 am. to 4:00 p.m. each day (or until operations are complete). They are necessary to allow the contractor for the $128 million I-20 rehab project to remove trees that are located along the ramps in the ‘clear zone.’
The clear zone is an unobstructed, traversable roadside area that allows a driver to stop safely, or regain control of a vehicle that has left the roadway. The removal of these trees helps improve safety by eliminating clear zone obstacles, and preventing any future issues with downed trees impacting the roadway.

This work will be performed WEATHER PERMITTING.
