## Resource

After a last-minute contractor standoff, Livingston Parish Public Works swooped in to install temporary lane markings, ensuring the long-awaited Burgess Road Bridge reopened on schedule—just after 10 AM. Replacing a crumbling wooden span, the new concrete bridge is wider, safer, and built to last, bringing relief to residents who’ve endured months of detours. Officials say they’ll resolve the contract dispute separately, but their top priority was getting the bridge open for the community.
