A recent video capturing the icy and snow-covered conditions on I-49 in North Louisiana serves as an important reminder of the importance of heeding state officials' advice to avoid traveling during icy or snowy conditions. Not only do we have less experience driving in these icy conditions we also do not drive vehicles with the proper snow tires making traveling during this time extremely dangerous.
Kansas City Southern Railroad has some work to do, but they will have to close a couple of heavily traveled Bossier City Roads in order to get that work done.
The work continues this week at I-220 and I-20 at the Barksdale Air Force Base Interchange and will require some alternative plans to navigate the area later this week.
