Lake Charles – The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) announces that the $11.2 million project to improve LA 14 in Calcasieu Parish from Power Center Parkway to US 90 is making progress.
The contractor, Progressive Construction, has already completed concrete patching, concrete milling, cleaning and resealing pavement joints, and subsurface drainage repairs between I-210 and US 90. They have also completed the asphalt overlay between the railroad crossing and 10th Street.
Currently, crews are performing asphalt patching between Power Center Parkway and East Prien Lake Road and expansion joint rehab between I-210 and US 90. With 65 percent of the project complete, remaining work includes concrete patching near the I-210 interchange and overlaying the entire 3.3-mile stretch of LA 14 with asphalt.
Once complete, the roadway improvements will increase the lifespan of the road, improve drainage, and improve ride quality for the traveling public. The asphalt will increase friction and drainage, resulting in a safer roadway for motorists.
The project is anticipated to wrap up by the summer of 2026, weather permitting.
