HIGHWAYS/INTERSTATE: Urges and requests the Department of Transportation and Development to make the space between the median uniform for all lanes on Perkins Road intersection
This bill asks the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development to make the lane spacing consistent at the Perkins Road intersection on LA-427. Currently, the road has uneven lane configurations on different sides of the median, which can cause traffic delays and safety issues. The resolution requests that the department adjust the design so that all lanes have the same amount of space between them to improve traffic flow. This is a non-binding request rather than a law that forces the department to take action.
