# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Notice is hereby given that FHWA and other Federal Agencies have taken final Agency actions by issuing approvals for the I-10 Calcasieu River Bridge Improvements (I-10/I-210 West End to I-10/I-210 East End), Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana. The project will replace the 72 year-old Calcasieu River Bridge and improve I-10 between the I-10/I-210 west and I-10/I-210 east interchanges in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana. The project length is approximately nine miles and includes the interstate roadways and ramps, the bridge approaches, interchanges, the I-10 service roads, and connecting state and local roads. The purpose of the project is to address the lack of system continuity on I-10 and along Sampson Street; reduce congestion and improve mobility on I-10 and along Sampson Street; address structural and functional roadway and bridge deficiencies; and address safety concerns on I-10 and the Calcasieu River Bridge. The needs that are addressed by this project include accommodating existing traffic and future traffic growth, enhancing trip reliability, reducing bottleneck at the bridge, providing improved geometric and structural design, and replacing aging infrastructure.
