Motorists in Bossier and Caddo Parishes should expect a brief road closure on February 12, for the Jimmie Davis Bridge replacement project. Clyde Fant Parkway in Shreveport will close around 9:00 a.m. for about 15 minutes to move construction cranes, according to the Department of Transportation and Development.

The Jimmie Davis Bridge (LA 511) replacement project has caused brief road closures to move construction cranes. Previous closures included Clyde Fant Parkway on Wednesday and Arthur Ray Teague Parkway on Friday, each lasting about 15 minutes. "These full road closures will be executed over the course of approximately 15 minutes, and are necessary to allow for the movement of cranes for construction work on the new Jimmie Davis Bridge project," the Department of Transportation and Development stated.

The Department of Transportation and Development's brief construction closures will have minimal traffic impact, with no alternate routes provided. Drivers should stay alert for crews and equipment, as schedules may change due to weather.
