Motorists in Jennings, take note: The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) has scheduled lane closures on the I-10 South Frontage Road at LA 26. According to an announcement on the DOTD website, starting at 7 a.m. tomorrow, the left turn lanes will be inaccessible until 5 p.m. to facilitate signal work.

The commencement of the work will focus on the Westbound I-10 South Service Road, after which the crews will progress to the Eastbound I-10. This process ensures the necessary updates to traffic signals in the region. The closures, as stated, depend largely on favorable weather conditions for safe work progression. Behind these adjustments is Project H.013826, which is particularly aimed at enhancing the left turn lanes at S. Frontage Road.

For those frequently traversing these roads, the DOTD has expressed gratitude for the public's patience and issued a safety reminder: "Please drive with caution through the construction site and be on the lookout for work crews and their equipment," as reported by the DOTD website. They emphasize the importance of heightened awareness in the vicinity of active construction zones, not just for motorists but also for pedestrians and cyclists.
