DPW775: Citywide ROW Concrete Improvements

The City of New Orleans Department of Public Works (DPW) is currently performing infrastructure repairs as part of the DPW775: Right of Way Concrete Improvement Project. Construction began in June 2025 and is scheduled to continue through Q2 2026, weather permitting.

The project includes concrete roadway patching, sidewalk repairs, and curb work at various locations throughout the city.

Project Locations:

• Canal Boulevard: (4900- 6600 blocks)

• Chapelle Street: (700 block)

• Johnny Jackson Boulevard: (3600-4000 blocks)

• Lake Forest Boulevard: (7700-11000 blocks)

• Mac Arthur Boulevard: (5300-5400 blocks)

• Prytania Street: (3500-3700 blocks)

• Woodland Drive: (5000 block)

• Vicksburg Street: (6900 block)

The Department of Public Works is managing the project during construction. Typical work hours are 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Weekend work will occur as needed.

Safety remains our top priority. During construction, traffic control measures—including cones, construction signage and “No Parking/Tow Away Zone” signs—are in place to guide drivers and pedestrians safely around active work areas. Local access for residents, deliveries, and emergency services is being maintained at all times during work hours.

Please Note: Construction schedules, dates, and durations are subject to change due to inclement weather, equipment issues, unforeseen field conditions, existing utility conflicts, or crew availability.
