Two Houma bridges have scheduled lane closures for inspections.
From the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development:
The Presque Isle Bridge on LA 24 crossing Bayou Petit Caillou in Houma, LA will be restricted to one (1) twelve (12’) foot lane of travel in the eastbound direction only, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on the following dates:

This lane closure and maximum travel width restriction of twelve (12’) feet is required in order to allow the Department’s engineering consultant contractor to perform a comprehensive in-depth inspection of the bridge’s mechanical, structural and electrical elements. In addition to the one (1) lane restriction, periodic vehicular closures not to exceed fifteen (15) minutes at a time, will be necessary throughout the four days of inspection in order to test the electrical and mechanical components of the bridge.
All westbound traffic shall continue onto LA 659 north to the LA 3087, Prospect Street Bridge to LA 24 during the aforementioned lane restriction/closure times.
