The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development advises motorists that beginning on Wednesday, March 3, 2021, the I-220 eastbound to I-20 eastbound ramp at the I-220 interchange in Bossier Parish, will be closed between the hours of 7:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.
These ramp closures are necessary for the placement of bridge girders over I-20 related to the ongoing construction of the new I-220/I-20/Barksdale Air Force Base Interchange.
All work related to the ramp closures will be performed between the hours of 7:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. each night to help minimize the impact to the traveling public. The ramp will be reopened each morning by 6:00 a.m.
In addition to the ramp closures, there will be a rolling road block that will last no longer than 15 minutes per occurrence to allow for the placement of the girders on Friday, March 12th and Monday, March 15th.
