Intermittent lane closures begin during Jimmie Davis Bridge project, will last through end of March

The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development advises motorists that beginning on Tuesday, March 3 there will be brief, intermittent lane closures on the Arthur Ray Teague Parkway at the Jimmie Davis Bridge (LA 511) in Bossier City.

These lane closures are anticipated to take place in 15-20 minute intervals in both directions for the purpose of moving equipment across the road related to the ongoing Jimmie Davis Bridge replacement project.

These brief lane closures are scheduled to take place through the month of March 2026, and should have minimal impact to traffic.

Construction on the overall project continues to move ahead, with the new bridge expected to be complete in mid-late 2027, weather and other factors permitting.
