Attention all Jefferson Parish commuters: roadwork on LA 3152 (Clearview Parkway) is slated to begin this Sunday. According to an announcement by the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development, motorists can expect recurring lane closures starting Sunday, July 6 and continuing through to July 11, due to road construction efforts. The work is weather permitting, so while the dates are set, keep an eye on the skies—things could shift with the whims of Mother Nature.
The construction will impact both northbound and southbound lanes of Clearview Pkwy, between the Huey P. Long Bridge and US 61 (Airline Dr), with a single lane closure slated for 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM, followed by a double lane closure after 9:30 PM. This pattern of closures will recur nightly from Sunday through Thursday, wrapping up early Friday morning. The specifics of the work involve upgrades to curb, handicap ramps, catch basins, and concrete patching—all integral to maintaining a safe thoroughfare.
Planning your evening commute may require a little forethought this coming week. The announcement indicates that the partial closures will allow some traffic to pass but expect delays. Drivers should consider alternate routes or prepare for a slow ride through the construction zone. Your punctuality may hang in the balance, so be forewarned and plan accordingly.
