Barriere Construction began work on the St. Charles Avenue project in May. The project, a joint effort between the City of New Orleans and the Louisiana Department of Transportation, did not begin before ensuring that all trees in the historic area were properly protected as per the City’s Parks and Parkways guidelines.
Crews have completed some patching in the roadway and plan to begin the installation of Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant curbs by mid-June.
This $1.3M project, designed by Linfield, Hunter, and Junius LLC includes the following scope of wok:
- Repaving the asphalt roadway from curb-to-curb;
- Installing Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant curb ramps at intersections;
- Repairing damaged sidewalks adjacent to ADA ramps;
- Patching in preparation for the next phase of construction; and
- Replacing street tiles.
