The resolution urges the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development to standardize the lane configuration at the Perkins Road intersection of LA-427. Currently, the intersection has varying lane arrangements, with LA-427 East featuring two straight lanes and two turning lanes, while LA-427 West has one turning lane and two straight lanes. This inconsistency, along with the lane configurations on LA-3064 North and South, contributes to traffic congestion, particularly during peak hours at busy intersections in Baton Rouge.

By creating uniform lane spaces between the median, the resolution aims to improve traffic flow, reduce delays, and minimize potential conflicts among vehicles. The legislature emphasizes that proper lane creation is essential for enhancing safety and efficiency in this high-traffic area. A copy of the resolution will be sent to the secretary of the Department of Transportation and Development to facilitate action on this request.
