Program Overview
East Baton Rouge Parish is funding the development of an Implementation Plan for
a traffic loop around the City of Baton rouge to relieve traffic congestion in our
growing region. From May 2007 - May 2008, a team of industry leaders chosen by the
East Baton Rouge Engineer Selection Board will determine, among other things, the
Loop corridor and financing models for construction.
The process will be managed by the Loop Executive Committee, which consists of the
Parish Presidents of Ascension, East Baton Rouge, Iberville, Livingson,
and West Baton Rouge Parishes.
Components of the Implementation Plan will be:
- Location
- Assessment of traffic and revenue potentials
- Develop financing plan
- Develop phasing plan for construction
- Public outreach and community involvement
