Abstract:

The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LADOTD), has been awarded a Highways for Life (HfL) grant to be used on the LA 511 widening project in Caddo Parish. The LA 511 corridor is one of the busiest in the Shreveport, Louisiana metropolitan area with a high crash incident rate. This project will provide needed relief for congestion and improved user safety. The HfL program will allow further enhancement of user satisfaction for speed of construction, tire/pavement noise levels, reduced congestion and increase wet weather visibility. Grant monies are used to provide additional funds to enhance implementation of innovative technologies that advance HfL goals with special emphasis on highway safety and congestion reduction.
