House Resolution No. by Representative Wyble urges the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development to conduct a study on traffic conditions along Louisiana Highway 21, specifically from the intersection with Highway 10 in Bogalusa to the state line. The resolution highlights the long-discussed need for a four-lane expansion of the highway, which would improve access to Interstate 12, enhance safety, and provide an additional evacuation route during hurricanes. It also emphasizes the importance of adding turning lanes to mitigate potential safety hazards, particularly for schools located along the highway.

The resolution calls for the Department of Transportation and Development to make recommendations regarding the four-lane expansion and the addition of turning lanes, with a report on their findings due to the House and Senate Committees on Transportation, Highways, and Public Works by August 1, 2025. The initiative aims to alleviate traffic congestion, promote safe travel, and ensure that the expansion does not negatively impact school zones during peak traffic times.
