La. 42 widening and improvement project update

Good Afternoon, I wanted to send you a brief update on the LA 42 project.

DOTD is currently in the process of acquiring the right-of-way to construct the project.  Once complete, the next step will be to clear land and move utilities.  Construction could begin as early as 2013, pending funding approval from the bond commission.  The estimated cost of construction is $20-$30 million.

Please contact DOTD by email or phone for any comments, questions or concerns.
