NEW ORLEANS — Today, weather permitting, the City of New Orleans Department of Public Works (DPW) contractor Barriere Construction Company, LLC. will close the 1850 block of N.

Security fencing and signage will be installed around the affected intersection to prioritize public safety, and residents have been notified through a neighborhood canvass.
The 1850 block of N. Miro St. between Annette and New Orleans streets will be closed to vehicular traffic while crews fully reconstruct the roadway with a new eight inch water main.

The block is expected to reopen by Monday, June 13.
The entire Bayou St John, Fairgrounds, Seventh Ward Group B Project is scheduled to be completed in December 2022, weather permitting. In general, the contractor is working from 7 a.m. until 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
