January 2025

The I-10 Widening and Reconstruction Project in Baton Rouge is progressing steadily. Crews continue concrete operations for the sound walls, which began early Jan. 2025, along the westbound portion of I-10 behind Baywood Ave. This work is anticipated to be completed mid-March, weather permitting.

In City Park Lake, crews continue the fabrication of the bridge pier caps and arches of the new bridge. Once these have been installed, crews will begin setting girders, which is estimated to begin early spring, weather permitting. These operations remain ongoing from Monday through Saturday during daytime hours.

While work is ongoing, residents and motorists throughout the corridor can expect to see an increase in truck traffic, as well as an increase in noise during the day.

Crews work diligently on the new sound walls along the westbound portion of I-10 behind Baywood Ave., part of the ongoing widening project aimed at improving traffic flow and reducing noise for nearby residents.

The I-10 Widening and Reconstruction Project is currently in Stage 1, which includes the first phase of permanent widening of the westbound City Park Lake Bridge, local roadway modifications, the Dalrymple eastbound service road and westbound exit ramp, and roadway improvements between the City Park Lake Bridge and Perkins Road. This stage is anticipated to be completed late 2025, weather permitting.
