Tangipahoa Parish road crews continue to make improvements to local roadways by changing out culverts to assist with drainage issues.
Tangipahoa Parish President Robby Miller announced that Marilyn Drive will be closed on Tuesday, July 19, for drainage improvements. Located off Stafford Road northeast of Natalbany, Marilyn Drive will be closed from 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m., weather permitting. Detours will be posted.
Another project has a portion of Wadesboro Road closed starting Monday, July 18, and continuing until late this fall. Tangipahoa Parish President Robby Miller said DOTD will close Wadesboro Road approximately .7 miles west of the I-55 Southwest Service Road starting Monday. State contractors will be replacing the bridge at that site. The estimated cost of the bridge replacement is $555,000. DOTD indicates the project could be completed around November 18, weather permitting. Miller said detours will be posted.
