A new roundabout is officially open in Lafayette.
The newly constructed roundabout is located at the intersection of E. Broussard Road (LA 733) and the new section of Kaliste Saloom Road. It was opened to traffic at 9 a.m. on Saturday.
The existing traffic signal at that intersection is now removed, and traffic is able to travel in the roundabout in all directions with no restrictions.
It's a part of the Kaliste Saloom widening project. When complete, the 2.2-mile stretch of Kaliste Saloom to E. Broussard Road will have five lanes, a center turn lane, and sidewalks.
