Topic: CITY PARK LAKE BRIDGE

Comment: 6. Will there be a glass sound wall over the City Park and University lakes? Response: Sound wall design comments have been received and will be considered as the project moves into the design stage. Presently, only the eastbound side of the City Park Lakes bridges qualifies for a federally funded noise wall. A […]

Comment: I support the Expressway Park to Dalrymple initiative. I also strongly support the ‘softening’ of the I‐10 bridge as it crosses over the City Park Lake. While this project (State Project No. H.004100.2) may be needed, Baton Rouge also needs BOTH a North and South loop around Baton Rouge. Had we built true bypasses […]

Comment: I hope that any sound barrier on the LSU Lake bridge will be clear because messing up one of the prettiest views in Baton Rouge would be a huge mistake aesthetically. What are the plans? Thank you! Response: DOTD is in the process of gathering public input relative to noise barriers on the City […]

Comment: Two. As I understand it, the bridges across City Park Lake are to be reworked. Part of that rework will be the addition of Sound Walls on the Bridges. Of the many miles of Interstate that pass through Baton Rouge, the “lakes” (City Park/LSU area) are the only places really worth looking at. It […]
