Senate Bill No. 101, introduced by Senator Abraham, designates a portion of Louisiana Highway 384 in Calcasieu Parish as the "Daniel Edward Didelot Memorial Highway." The designated section begins at Big Diamond Disposal Road and extends to N. Precht Road. The bill outlines the responsibilities of the Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) regarding the erection and maintenance of signage for this memorial designation.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that the DOTD will only proceed with the installation of the signs if local or private funds are provided to cover the actual costs of materials, fabrication, mounting posts, and installation, with a maximum expenditure of $750 per sign. This measure is set to take effect on August 1, 2026.
