Engineers working on the environmental assessment phase of a proposed widening of 3.5 miles of Interstate 10 through the heart of Baton Rouge are months behind schedule, due to the challenges of trying to plan the project around several residential neighborhoods, historic structures and a thriving merchants district.
quote:
A final draft of the assessment was originally supposed to be presented at a public hearing in December. But the date was pushed back to February because state transportation officials said at the time the report wasn’t quite ready.

Now, Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development spokesman Rodney Mallett says it will probably be late spring or early summer before the final draft of the assessment is ready to present to the public for a final hearing

How do I get a gig like this? Pay me to tell you it is not ready. I think this is how a doctor who refers 100 percent of patients must feel.

Sounds like we need to commission a study on how to make these studies be studied better.

These guys seem to all work like attorneys. Draw out billable hours by any means necessary. It's so expected that the word delay and money to fund it seem like just business as usual. Crazy.

I really don’t understand why they can’t get this done. It’s absolutely ridiculous. It could’ve been halfway completed by now if everyone would stfu and just let it be done.
The capital city in Louisiana and they can’t even have an interstate to get through without standstill traffic everyday. Can somebody explain why it’s not being constructed? Legit response

This is the biggest joke of all the government agencies in Louisiana. There’s some shitty ones too.

Is caring about historic structures a thing now?

They have to divvy up the loot, and there’s probably a few months hold time to see if any state or local keaders who missed out on the first offer step up for their vig.

If everything in Baton Rouge is slow, late, and second rate, at least let's eliminate open container laws. If you're gonna be backwards, be fun.

If it took three years and 11 months from authorizing sidewalks on Gardere to starting construction, do you believe they can start widening 10 in less than five years?

Why? Why in the world do we need to do an environmental impact study for expanding an already existing elevated road way that is elevated over DEVELOPED land?!?!?!?!?!?

As long as the widening part from Highland to 73 isn’t behind schedule
