By Calcasieu Staff

Published February 25, 2025

Sulphur, Louisiana - The City of Sulphur has officially announced upcoming road closures affecting South Irwin Street. These closures are scheduled to take place from Wednesday, February 26th, through Thursday, February 27th, 2023. The specific locations impacted include the stretch of South Irwin Street at West Elizabeth Street to Phillips Street, as well as South Irwin Street at Pearl Street.

The decision to implement these closures is part of an asphalt patching project aimed at improving road safety and surface quality. Asphalt patching involves repairing damaged sections of the road by filling in potholes and cracks, which can help prevent further deterioration and ensure a smoother driving experience for motorists.

It is recommended that drivers exercise caution, adhere to all posted signage, and consider alternative routes if possible. The City of Sulphur is making efforts to minimize disruptions while ensuring the safety of both drivers and construction crews.
