Road work begins on section of Williams Avenue

The City of Natchitoches announces that pavement construction work will begin on Thursday, Feb. 22 on Williams Avenue from Keyser Avenue to Church Street.

This work will consist of cold-planing to remove the top layer of the existing asphalt pavement, followed by placement of a new asphaltic concrete surface course beginning next week.

While the milling and resurfacing work is ongoing, two-way one-lane traffic will be maintained by use of flaggers. 

This project is part of the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development’s Pavement Preservation Program.

The City also announces that, weather permitting, base reconstruction work will also begin next week on Carver Street from Williams Avenue to East Fifth Street.  While this work is ongoing, through traffic will need to detour around the worksite via adjacent City streets.  This project is part of the City’s 2023-24 Street Rehabilitation Program.

The contractor for both projects is Regional Construction, LLC, of Natchitoches.

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

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