Beginning Monday May 4, 2009, westbound lanes on US 190 over US 71 overpass in St Landry Parish will be allowed to travel on the newly constructed bridge structure.  The eastbound traffic will shift to the inside lane of the westbound side Tuesday, May 5, 2009.  Westbound traffic will be maintained in the outside westbound lane.  Posted speeds will be reduced.  There will also be restrictions on oversized loads.  Louisiana DOTD regrets any inconvenience this necessary work may cause and appreciates your patience.
