Two new roundabouts are coming to rural intersections just outside Lafayette Parish in south Louisiana. The first is in Iberia Parish, another in Acadia Parish.
You are asked to remain patient and aware during the construction phase of the roundabout as crews are expected to be on-site from 7am - 5pm, Monday - Friday.
According to Scott Mayor Jan-Scott Richard, this project is expected to take eight months, weather permitting, and the completion date is projected for April 16, 2023.
