HR 191 Louisiana House · 2026 Regular Session

HIGHWAYS: Urges and requests the Department of Transportation and Development to study the need for and safety of mountable median curbs on Range Avenue in Denham Springs, Louisiana

This bill directs the Department of Transportation and Development to investigate the necessity and safety of installing mountable median curbs on Range Avenue in Denham Springs, Louisiana. The study will specifically assess how these physical road features impact local businesses and commercial activity along the street. By requesting this analysis, the legislation aims to gather data before any potential infrastructure changes are made. The measure is a formal request for information rather than a mandate to build or alter the road immediately.

MINOR
The bill was converted from an Engrossed version to an Enrolled version, which is the final, official form ready for the Governor's signature. The substantive policy content, including the request to study mountable median curbs and the deadline for the report, remains unchanged. The primary differences are formatting adjustments, such as the removal of the legislative digest and minor rewording of the resolution text to match the enrolled style.
TECHNICAL

The document was renumbered and formatted to the official Enrolled style, removing the 'Digest' section which explains the bill but is not part of the law itself.

Minor wording adjustments were made to the 'Whereas' clauses to improve flow and consistency with the enrolled format, though the core meaning regarding safety data and business concerns remains the same.
