I-12 Barriers Finally Getting Gaps | Baton Rouge News

Description

Ten years after the catastrophic 2016 flood that trapped thousands of cars on I-12, massive concrete barriers are finally getting upgrades—thanks to a $6.4 million settlement—to carve drainage gaps and prevent future flooding. Work will begin in September on 13 miles of highway through Livingston Parish, balancing safety with flood relief. Meanwhile, the larger Comite River Diversion Project is also slated for completion by 2028 to protect homes and businesses from rising waters.
