The I-10 widening project happening from the I-10/I-49 interchange to Breaux Bridge (LA 328) continues this week as the westbound left lane of I-10, from the Vermilion Bridge to the Louisiana Avenue Bridge, will be closed for hydro demolition. This will happen nightly from 8 PM to 6 AM Sunday, August 27.

Also, on Tuesday, August 22, Louisiana Avenue in both directions will be closed under the I-10 overpass for hydro demolition over La. Avenue from 8 PM to 6 AM that night.
The detour route for northbound and southbound traffic on Louisiana Avenue is as follows:
Northbound: Take I-10 eastbound to LA 328, then back to I-10 westbound to continue north on Louisiana Avenue.
Southbound: Take I-10 westbound to I-49, then back to I-10 eastbound to Louisiana Avenue to continue south.

The widening project is expected to be completed in Fall 2019.
