Road closure: Portion of West Third Street

The City of Natchitoches announces that, weather permitting, road resurfacing work will begin on Feb. 12 on West Third Street from Texas Street to Sabine Street. Closure of this street to through traffic is anticipated on Tuesday and Wednesday, Feb. 13-14, to allow for construction of a new cement-treated base course. 

While this street is closed, traffic must detour around this work site via adjacent City streets, such as Dixie Street or Dorothy Street. 

The City also announces that the new asphalt surfacing will be placed on Fairgrounds Road sometime during the week of Feb. 12. During this operation, one-lane two-way traffic will be maintained by use of flaggers. 

This work is part of the City’s 2023-24 Street Rehabilitation Program. 

While traveling through these work zones, motorists are urged to obey all warning signs and flagger instructions. 

For more information, please contact the City Engineer, Nick Verret, at (318) 352-3877.
