St. Mary Parish
A US 90 rehabilitation project scheduled to begin Thursday, November 12, 2026, will require intermittent alternating lane closures in St. Mary Parish, according to the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development.
The roadway will remain open, but oversized loads face a lane width restriction of 14 feet. Emergency vehicles can pass through the work zone, although delays are possible.
DOTD places the project between a point about 1.6 miles southeast of the US 90 and LA 317 junction and a point about 0.5 miles northwest of the US 90 and LA 182 junction, near Wax Lake Outlet.
The $8,444,172 project includes resurfacing and pavement repairs. Crews are expected to work weekdays from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., weather permitting, with nighttime or weekend work possible. Completion is estimated for August 28, 2027, also weather permitting.
