Iberville Parish- The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development announces that beginning Wednesday, April 6, the Bayou Sorrel Bridge on LA 75 will have alternating closures.

The below vehicular closures will remain in effect until further notice:
· Monday- Thursday: 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 9 p.m. to 4 a.m.
