By July 31, 2020, repairs to Shreveport's Spring Street bridge had advanced beyond the foundation work. DOTD reported all 22 helical piles installed and the concrete footing poured after the April train derailment that damaged the northbound LA 1 overpass.
Crews were installing replacement columns and a crash wall intended to protect against future derailments. The bridge and I-20 Exit 19A remained closed, making Fairfield Avenue the designated approach for downtown deliveries, including refrigerated trailers. DOTD forecast completion in late August, with concrete work and railroad coordination still affecting the schedule.

We match a refrigerated trailer or container to the product and space, then review power, placement, access, and any mobile kitchen or dishwashing support.
- Confirm the quote and delivery plan
Availability, rental terms, delivery, and setup are confirmed in your quote before the unit is scheduled.
