Scope Of Work
The project is to raise a nine mile stretch of the Mississippi River Levee on the East Bank in Jefferson Parish. The work consists of raising the Levee by removing the access roadway and various permitted vehicle crossings and adding approximately two feet of material. Once the added material is in place, we will replace the access road and permitted vehicle crossings. The entire project will be divided into two segments, beginning with a 4.2-mile stretch that starts at the Orleans Parish line. Following completion of the first stretch, the second 4.6-mile segment from Orchard Road to the St. Charles Parish line will begin. Both segments are projected to take 13 months to complete.
