DOTD advises motorists that as of May 25 at 6 pm, LA 164 between Ponder Road and Sherwood Lane near Sibley in Webster Parish has been REOPENED.
The contractor will now proceed with the patch, mill and overlay portion of the project. This will require intermittent lane closures as work progresses, and traffic will often be allowed through the construction zone through the use of a flagging operation. Motorists should be prepared for possible delays during these operations.
DOTD strongly urges motorists to pay attention to advance warning signs prior to entering the work zone, adhere to the posted speed limit, and avoid driving distracted at all times.
