Comment:

Please save as many mature trees as possible during the widening of 1-10 in BTR. Out of town friends praise BTR for the canopy of trees surrounding parts of I-10.
Please budget a suffice to amount to replace any destroyed/damaged in this process.
Please plan to work 24 hours a day like the outstanding work done by the contractor years ago at the I-10/12 split. They got millions in incentive awards. Great for all. Work around neighborhoods at night time.
Thanks and best wishes.


Response:

DOTD will be replacing trees in accordance with their Significant Tree policy and will replant where, possible in coordination with Baton Rouge Green.
