road construction

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

Only the striping and clean up operations remain before the work is totally completed.

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

Government officials are quick to deny any connection between a bridge construction project and the mythical Bigfoot.

A request for federal funding to repair the roadway's surface will be made in the next several days.

The closure is estimated to take place from 8:30 a.m. until 3:00 p.m., weather permitting.

Motorists who travel through Youngsville will need to plan an alternate route as four bridges in the city have been slated for repair work.

Johnston Street could be facing the next big road construction project in Lafayette.

The proposed project includes improved drainage, turning lanes and of course, another roundabout.
