The parishes that make up the Baton Rouge region are Ascension, Assumption, East Baton Rouge, East Feliciana, Iberville, Point Coupe, St. James, West Baton Rouge and West Feliciana.
The road show allows legislators, elected officials, DOTD representatives and the public to discuss and obtain information and details about construction projects that are in effect in the Highway Priority Program and how those specific projects will affect each area of the state.
Anyone who wishes to attend is encouraged to do so. Oral testimony may also be supplemented by factual submissions and written documentation. These writings must be given to the committee conducting the hearing.
