Coleman Creek bridge in Claiborne Parish to close

Louisiana's Department of Transportation and Development will close the LA 146 bridge over Coleman Creek in Claiborne Parish on Monday, September 24. The bridge is a mile west of the LA 146/LA 518 intersection just southeast of Homer.

Since the DOTD will completely close the bridge, drivers will need to take LA 518, LA 9 and LA 79 as detour routes.

The closure is for piling repairs to the bridge. The work should take about five days depending on the weather.
