St. Tammany/West Notables talk traffic
Notable business owners and elected leaders in and around Madisonville, LA weigh in on the effects of traffic in the area and possible solutions, both short-term and long-term.Traffic chronic issues in the Madisonville, LA area have prompted two local entrepreneurs to propose the construction of a 4-lane Bypass Toll Bridge across the Tchefuncte River where an aging 2-lane swing bridge hinders the free-flow of traffic, contributing to traffic problems in and around the Madisonville, LA area by creating a choke-point that hinders traffic that sometimes exceeds 18,000 vehicles per day. The bypass bridge would be built and maintained by a Private Company (no municipal or state funds) in exchange for tolls. The venture would follow the Public-Private-Partnership (P3) model.
