DOTD US 165 Safety Project

The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) is seeking public feedback at a second meeting to discuss updates on a proposed safety improvement project for US 165 in Monroe, Ouachita Parish. This meeting aims to gather input from residents, elected officials, stakeholders, and other interested parties while providing updated information since the first meeting in April 2023.

The project focuses on analyzing and developing improvements for US 165 from Renwick Street to LA 15 (Winnsboro Road), with the goal of enhancing safety for all road users, including bicyclists and pedestrians. Public participation is encouraged, as feedback is crucial to the project's development.

The meeting will be held Monday, October 28, 2024, 5:30 – 6:30 PM at Wossman High School Gymnasium, 1600 Arizona Ave., Monroe, LA 71202.
