The City’s contractor for the West Bank Group A project, Durr Heavy Construction Co. is currently working on the roadway on Vivian Court and Bender Drive. Once the contractor completes construction in those areas, crews will return to Algiers Point.
The now $7.8M project, which is the first of two planned FEMA-funded construction projects on the Westbank of New Orleans, will be wrapped up in 2020.

- Patch Mill/Overlay: Repaving the asphalt roadway from curb to curb and repair damaged sidewalks;
- Patch Concrete: Removing damaged portions of the concrete roadway and replace it with new smooth concrete pavement;
- Incidental Road Repairs: Removing damaged portions of the asphalt roadway and replace it with new smooth pavement; and
- Non-Paving Incidentals: Repairing damaged sidewalks, driveway aprons and curbs within the public right-of-way.
