Access Road Redesign Creates Stall
According to DOTD officials, the letting of two contracts for the construction of new lanes on Highway 61 through West Feliciana Parish has been delayed until at April. Orignially, contracts were to be awarded this month with construction to begin shortly thereafter.
The delay is caused by a change in the plans for a short service road from the Audubon Bridge approach road to Hwy. 61 near D'John's Restaurant. This change has caused additional utility relocation to be necessary, officials say. The new design consolidates access from side streets into one intersection with Hwy. 61.
Officials say further delays are not expected. Your Chamber will keep you posted on this important project.
