ALEXANDRIA, La. (AP) - The state Department of Transportation and Development says work will begin Friday on the Fort Buhlow Bridge that will replace the O.K. Allen Bridge.
Work on the $82.9 million project will involve replacing the existing two-lane O.K. Allen Bridge on U.S. 71/U.S. 165 over the Red River between Alexandria and Pineville with a new four-lane
bridge.
The new bridge will be built south of the
existing bridge.
Work on the project is expected to last approximately three years.
