OPEN HOUSE PUBLIC MEETING
STATE AND FEDERAL AID PROJECT NOS. H.016786 & H016786
US 61: AIRLINE @CECIL INT IMP (ORLEANS)
ORLEANS PARISH
The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LADOTD) will conduct an open house public meeting for the proposed US 61: AIRLINE @CECIL INT IMP (ORLEANS) project. The project proposes intersection improvements at the intersection Airline Highway (US 61) and Cecil Street in Orleans Parish. The project will extend the existing median creating a RCUT intersection eliminating left hand turns from Cecil Street onto US 61. The project also proposes to cut and stripe a pedestrian crossing adding curb ramps on US 61 and convert this intersection to a signalized intersection to facilitate pedestrian crossing to the Jefferson Parish Transit bus stop.
The purpose of the meeting is to provide information about the project and to obtain input from interested parties. There will be a continuous multi-media presentation during the meeting and additional project information will be available. Representatives from LADOTD will be available at the open house to answer questions and discuss issues related to the project.
Verbal and written comments on the project can be submitted at the meeting. Comments can also be mailed to the LADOTD address shown below, postmarked by June 26, 2026.
