Will the
Interstate 49 construction project rip through Shreveport's historic Allendale
community? A series of meetings are
scheduled this week to keep residents informed.
The inner
city connector project is part of the I-49 corridor which runs from Canada to
New Orleans. It will be about 3.6 miles
in length. State Representative Roy Burrell believes this could be an economic
gain for the area.
There are
four different options for proposed routes.
At the meetings people are able to select which option they like the
most.
The final
meeting this year will be held Thursday at noon at the Greater Shreveport
Chamber of Commerce.
