Comment: 48. Why are about 20 percent 0f the lights on the interstate not working? Response: 48 – DOTD maintenance personnel routinely replace non-functional lighting; it is possible that multiple bulb failures occur at the same time.
Comment: I’m addressing the College I-10 east departure ramp that will be running into a bottleneck on the College side. And the green space that feeds into College should be reduced to help alleviate that, okay? Because I notice that the construction stops with the two lanes, but it doesn’t carry on into the lights, […]
Comment: I understand the Perkins road exit has to be demolished to add the additional eastbound lane, BUT why can’t the exit be redone in the same place afterwards since the area already exists? Thanks Response: The ramps for Perkins Road and Acadian Throughway do not currently meet recommended interchange spacing distance as defined by […]

Comment: 41. Will carpools and vanpools have a priority line through or around during construction? 42. Why wouldn’t it be more practical to have police on motorcycles monitor any accidents and assist with moving vehicles to the side of the road 43. Why do we not fine people like Florida does if they run out […]
Comment: Priority should be given to correcting the Washington Street Exit, as it requires a single lane crossing the bridge. This is the MAJOR cause for traffic jams.

Comment: I would like to see a double lane entrance to the bridge from LA 1 all the way to the trusses of the Mississippi River bridge. Response: Thank you for your comment. This alternative concept will be reviewed, if its has merit, any resulting design changes will be shown during the public hearing.
Comment: Completely remove the access to Washington St. Use the deceleration lane off the bridge as designed to stay elevated and exit at Dalrymple. Remove the Washington Street entry as well. Save the funds and move any traffic to Dalrymple as the access point. Response: Traffic Analysis shows that consolidated Washington Street/Dalrymple Drive Interchange will […]
