HIGHWAYS/INTERSTATE: Urges and requests the Department of Transportation and Development to create an indication of a merging lane at Exit 159 on the Essen Lane ramp of I-10 West

This bill is a concurrent resolution that asks the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development to add clear signage indicating a lane merge at Exit 159 on the Essen Lane ramp of Interstate 10 West. The measure aims to address current safety concerns by ensuring drivers have enough time and visibility to anticipate the lane change, which the text claims currently leads to accidents and abrupt maneuvers. If adopted, the request would result in the installation of proper road markings or signs before the merge point to help manage traffic flow and reduce congestion. The legislation does not mandate the work itself but serves as a formal recommendation to the state agency responsible for highway maintenance.
