INTERMITTENT LANE CLOSURES: LA 3 (Benton Rd) in Bossier Parish
The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development advises motorists that beginning on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, there will be intermittent lane closures on a section of LA 3 (Benton Road) in Bossier City as part of an ongoing project to provide concrete panel repairs.
These intermittent lane closures will take place between LA 73 (Old Minden Rd) and Viking Drive from approximately 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. daily, and are necessary to allow the contractor to clean and apply permanent roadway striping on the project length.
The concrete panel replacement portion of the project has been completed.
Because striping is highly weather dependent, this work is being conducted during the daytime to ensure temperatures are warm enough to allow the striping to properly bond to the pavement.
This work is anticipated to wrap up in early March 2026, weather and other factors permitting.
Restrictions/Permits: N/A
Alternate Route: No detour necessary for this work, though motorists should expect possible delays, particularly during peak travel times.
This work will be performed WEATHER PERMITTING.
Safety reminder:
DOTD appreciates your patience and reminds you to please drive with caution through the construction site and be on the lookout for work crews and their equipment. Remember to leave plenty of room between you and the vehicle in front of you.
Area residents should exercise caution when driving, walking, or biking near an active construction zone.
