Weather Postponed January Work on the Huey P. Long Bridge
DOTD postponed planned finger-joint repairs on the Huey P. Long Bridge in a January 15, 2026 update. The eastbank-bound lane closures previously scheduled for January 16–19 would not go ahead that weekend because of the threat of bad weather.
The agency said all bridge lanes would remain open while a revised repair schedule was prepared. That update mattered to refrigerated trailers using U.S. 90, superseding the earlier two-lane restriction. The larger maintenance project addressed the interlocking steel joints that accommodate movement in the bridge, with additional work weekends to be announced separately.
