Baton Rouge – The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) is advising motorists that many state routes throughout Louisiana are still closed due to the effects of Hurricane Francine. Below is a list of closures that are still in effect. Keep in mind that this list may change quickly due to crews working continuously, as well as power outages preventing notices from being announced.

DOTD emphasizes the importance of safety. Never drive around “road closed” signs or barricades under any circumstances.

Many traffic signals in the area may be without power and thus non-operational. Drivers encountering dark traffic signals should treat these intersections as four-way stops in the absence of law enforcement personnel directing traffic.

Motorists are encouraged to check the status of road conditions prior to beginning commutes to impacted areas by utilizing the following resources for the latest information regarding road conditions:
  • MyDOTD: Motorists can receive automatic and up-to-date information on local projects, lane and road closures, and other DOTD activity by signing up for MyDOTD at www.dotd.la.gov.
  • 511 Traveler Information: Travelers can also find information regarding road closures by visiting the 511 Traveler Information website at www.511la.org or by dialing 511 from their telephone and saying the route or region about which they are seeking information. Out-of-state travelers can access the system by calling 1-888-ROAD-511 (1-888-762-3511).
  • Social media: Additional information can be found at DOTD’s Facebook and X pages.
