road construction

Roundabouts are a thing in Acadiana. But, have they been a thing longer than we realize?

Portions of La. 182 in St. Mary Parish are now under construction due to a much needed $3 million project.

The Lafayette Public Works Department announced yesterday that the Ambassador Caffery southbound outside lane at Dulles Drive is now open for traffic.

For people who drive in the Johnston Street and E/W Broussard area, Liz Webb Hebert shares some important information regarding the project's timeline.

Savoy Road in Youngsville will be closed for the next two days for roundabout construction and drainage work.

The road construction on West Congress Street and Guilbeau Road in Lafayette will take longer than expected.

Most of the work is scheduled for the nighttime hours but there could be some lane and shoulder closures along I-10 for motorists who travel during that time.

The 2.7-mile-long project cost taxpayers $54.7 million dollars and was finally completed in December of last year.

Between now and Christmas motorists who use the Breaux Bridge Exit off I-10 will need to be mindful of ongoing lane and ramp closures.

Some of the projects include improvements for I-10 and U.S. 90 in South Louisiana.

Monday's closures will affect Settler's Trace, West Farrel, Old Settlement Road, and one end of Cherokee Lane.

A list of road/lane closures at areas on and around I-10.

Because of expected inclement weather on Wednesday, the newly installed traffic signal will become operational on Thursday, March 5.

There are numerous lane closures scheduled to happen this week as the widening project continues on Interstate 10.

Good news for drivers, the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge resurfacing project has ended earlier than expected.

The alternating lane closures will affect both directions on I-10 beginning next week.

A change in the construction schedule will mean no lane closures for the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge at Whiskey Bay this weekend.

Beginning Sunday, January 5 at 8:30 PM, I-10 on the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge from Mile Marker 117 in St. Martin Parish to Mile Marker 141 (Grosse Tete) in Iberville Parish will have alternating lane and shoulder closures as DOTD workers perform bridge joint and barrier rail repairs.

DOTD crews are patching the roadway and doing other work on Verot School Road from now through Saturday, December 14, weather permitting.

Expect detour routes on Girard Park Drive and Hospital Drive for at least the next eight months.
