The scope of work includes:

• Repairing damaged catch basins;
• Adding roadway striping, including a protected bike lane, over the Broad Street overpass and a dedicated bike lane between the Broad Street overpass and Tulane Avenue;
• Adding crosswalk striping;
• Installing new concrete bus islands; and
• Re-allocating curb space including moving freight and passenger zones.

The City hosted a public meeting to discuss construction sequencing on Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2018 at Falstaff Building. View a copy of the presentation here. Sign up for project updates by writing RoadWork@nola.gov.
