Drivers in Calcasieu Parish, take note. Starting on Tuesday, June 10, you're going to have to deal with some disruptions on LA 385 Southbound. According to an announcement on the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development website, roadwork for utility improvements is going to result in a partial closure. This specifically means the right lane of LA 385 Southbound will be unavailable to traffic from 8:00 AM until 12:00 PM on that Tuesday.
For those wondering, the stretch of the road affected starts at Alamo Street and continues until Eddy Street. Plan accordingly to avoid getting caught in a slowdown. Considering traffic flow, you might want to seek an alternative route to quickly reach your destination. Keep in mind, these types of projects can sometimes stretch beyond their scheduled completion time.
The roadwork is characterized as "Utility Work," which usually involves repairs or upgrades to infrastructure like water, sewage, electricity, or telecommunications services, as per the DOTD. Such improvements are essential for maintaining the reliability and efficiency of these services, even if it presents a temporary inconvenience for motorists.
