Durr Heavy Construction, LLC crews are currently saw cutting excavation sites that will be replaced as part of the first of two planned FEMA-funded construction projects on the Westbank of New Orleans. This first project was designed by Richard C. Lambert Consultants, LLC and includes approximately $3.7M in construction work throughout the Westbank.
The City hosted a pre-construction public meeting in April to discuss the project’s construction sequencing and anticipated impacts. View a copy of the public meeting presentation here. Sign up to receive Westbank Group A project updates here.
