Baton Rouge, LA – December 3, 2014 – Planners who are looking at ways to improve traffic flow in the south Baton Rouge health district are proposing building a new north-south road between Bluebonnet Boulevard and Essen Lane that would link Perkins Road to Interstate 10….
The goal of the traffic plan isn’t to push congestion into other parts of the city, but to create an overall system that works better, said Joel Mann, an associate with Nelson\Nygaard, a transportation planning firm with offices in Atlanta.
“We want to have less concentrated demand on the roadway network,” he said.
