LA 12 Bridge Traffic Shift Near Louisiana-Texas State Line Starting August 30

Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana – On August 29, 2022, the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LADOTD) announced that motorists can expect a traffic shift on LA 12 at the Mud Lake Bridge, Hursey Slough Bridge, and Ashworth Slough Bridge near the Louisiana-Texas state line, beginning Tuesday, August 30, 2022.

Traffic on the bridges will be diverted to the newly built detour route. A lane closure will be implemented, with traffic on the diversion bridge restricted to a single lane with signal control. This will allow the contractor to safely divert traffic and install all necessary barriers before opening both lanes on the diversion bridge. Once all traffic has been diverted, the existing bridge will be closed for replacement.

The project is expected to be completed in mid-2023. All dates and activities are weather permitting.

LADOTD appreciates your patience and reminds you to please drive with extreme caution through the construction site and be on the lookout for work crews and their equipment.
