Culvert Replacement Project on Beau Chene Drive
Commencing Monday, March 28th at 9 AM
Our Public Works staff are working on a planned project to replace culverts (drainage pipe) that are approximately 35-40 years old. The culvert being replaced Monday runs under Beau Chene Drive between homes at 532 & 534 on the south side and homes at 535 & 537 Beau Chene Drive on the north side of the road. There will be a one-day road closure during the work to replace pipe underneath the roadway. During road closures there will be NO Thru Traffic on this section.
The work will include:
- Removal of a section of the asphalt road and old culvert underneath road
- Installation of new LA DOTD approved arch metal coated pipe
- Fill in and pack with limestone and clay material and allow to compact. During compaction the roads will be fully opened.
- The final step is to repave the asphalt roadway section next year.
All work progress will be subject to weather conditions. Residents and guests will need to plan their routes around the work area. The work area will be identified with road signs indicating road closure and detours.
Should you have any questions or concerns regarding these projects, please contact Lindsey Adkins at 985-231-6285 ext. 3.
