DOTD has announced an $8.5 million project to repair portions of US 80 and LA 9 near the Town of Arcadia in Bienville Parish.
Preliminary work on the project has begun, with the contractor currently beginning the process of milling the roadway to remove the old asphalt in preparation of upcoming asphalt paving.
The project stretches on US 80 from LA 154 to LA 9 on the western side of Arcadia (nearly 7 miles of improvements), and on LA 9 as it passes under I-20.
Work on the project includes full-depth base repairs, milling, new asphalt paving, fresh roadway striping, and related work.
*This project was made possible by funding allocated from the Louisiana Transportation Infrastructure Fund (LTIF 2.0) during the 2025 Regular Legislative Session.
