Good news for Jefferson Davis Parish residents and commuters: The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) has lifted the closures on LA 380. According to an announcement on the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development's official website, traffic is now flowing unimpeded between Byler Road and Jenuis Road following recent construction work.

While bringing a sense of relief to those long awaiting the completion of this roadwork, Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development isn't easing off the safety throttle. Driving through the areas where construction crews have been active, they caution motorists to remain vigilant. "DOTD appreciates your patience and reminds you to please drive with caution through the construction site and be on the lookout for work crews and their equipment," read the statement on the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development website.

For those living in proximity to the construction zone, the news is especially welcoming, urging caution while driving, walking, or biking near the freshly minted pavement. "Area residents should exercise caution when driving, walking, or biking near an active construction zone," the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development statement added, emphasizing personal responsibility within the shared spaces of our roadways.
