PROJECT COMPLETE: LA 9 asphalt overlay, Natchitoches Parish
NATCHITOCHES PARISH – The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development announces the substantial completion of the $7.3 million project to repair a nearly 7 mile section of LA 9 in Natchitoches Parish.
The project, which stretched from LA 156 to US 71 in the Town of Campti, included base repairs at certain locations to strengthen the roadway, drainage work, milling to remove old asphalt, fresh asphalt paving along the entire project, new striping & signage, and related work.
LA 9 is an important connector route that stretches through several parishes, and provides access to towns such as Campti, Arcadia, and Homer.
This type of investment in the state’s transportation system is another step toward modernizing the network, improving quality of life for citizens and visitors, and strengthening connectivity for communities across Louisiana.
As always, DOTD appreciates the patience of the traveling public while construction activities were underway.
This project was made possible by funding from the Louisiana Transportation Infrastructure Fund (LTIF 1.0).
