The resolution urges the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development to study the feasibility of adding a third lane to the Interstate 10 (I-10) East off-ramp on Siegen Lane in Baton Rouge. This area is identified as a heavily trafficked interchange that experiences significant congestion, particularly during peak hours, due to its current one-lane configuration that transitions into two lanes. The resolution highlights the negative impact of this congestion on traffic flow, public safety, and emergency response times, emphasizing the need for improvements to accommodate the high volume of daily motorists.

Furthermore, the resolution calls for the Department of Transportation and Development to report its findings on the potential benefits of this expansion to the relevant legislative committees by August 1, 2026. The proposed addition of a third lane aims to enhance traffic flow, improve safety for drivers, and support the overall mission of the Department to maintain an efficient and reliable transportation infrastructure in Louisiana.
