The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development advises the public that beginning Monday, July 20, at 7 p.m., weather permitting, there will be nightly alternating lane closures from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. at the following intersections:
- US 165 (Masonic Drive) at Horseshoe Drive
- US 165 (Masonic Drive) at South MacArthur (Service Road near Home Depot)
- MacArthur Drive at Sugar House Road
- Broadway Avenue at Dallas Avenue
- LA 28 at Cloverleaf Boulevard
- Eddie Williams Avenue and Broadway Avenue
One lane in each direction will remain open at all times.
The closures are necessary to allow for the installation of new mast arms on the signal pole foundations for the new flashing yellow left-turn arrows and related work.
All work is anticipated to be completed at the listed intersections by late July 2026, with progress dependent on weather conditions and other factors that can impact construction timelines.
The contract was awarded to Jack B. Harper Electrical, LLC in the amount of $9,040,462.73.
There are no detours or lane width restrictions associated with the project.
DOTD reminds motorists that all construction activity is weather dependent and may be rescheduled due to inclement weather. Drivers are urged to use caution when traveling through work zones and to watch for work crews and equipment.
