Lafayette, LA (KLFY) – Lafayette Consolidated Government (LCG) will close the 1400 block of Lajaunie Road beginning Monday, Aug 4. to allow for the full replacement of the Lajaunie Road Bridge over Bayou St. Clair Lateral 1.
The $2 million project will replace the aging three-span concrete bridge with timber piles with a new three-span concrete structure.
Additional improvements include subsurface drainage installation, flexible revetment for erosion control, and new asphalt approaches.
Construction is expected to last approximately nine months, weather permitting.
Merrick, LLC has been selected as the contractor for the project, with T. Baker Smith serving as the consultant engineer. The project is funded through the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development’s Off-System Bridge Program, with LCG responsible only for right-of-way acquisition, utility relocation, and detour signage.
To minimize disruption, detour routes will be clearly marked and include:
- Maryview Farm Road
- Moss Street
- East Gloria Switch Road
Local access for residents and emergency vehicles will be maintained throughout the duration of the closure.
