Over the years we have been able to appreciate the value of our city’s roadside trees and green infrastructure. I hope these trees and spaces are accounted for and replaced after completion of the widening project. I pray that remediation of these sites is considered and included into the initial budgeting of the project.
Response:
DOTD will be replacing trees in accordance with their Significant Tree policy and will replant where, possible in coordination with Baton Rouge Green.
