The Louisiana Department of Transportation has completed a 2.5-million-dollar project, installing 28 new closed-circuit television cameras along I-10 from Lake Charles to Scott. John Guidroz with DOTD says these cameras are connected to the state agency’s main fiber network, expanding public access to live-stream traffic coverage along that stretch.
“Basically, this is connecting these new cameras with DOTD’s main fiber network that’s already along I-10
Guidroz says the additional cameras enhance traffic monitoring, operations, and safety along the corridor.
“There are now these additional cameras along this stretch of interstate 10 that they can access to basically have more points of finding out what real time traffic is happening along interstate 10.”
The public can view the cameras on 511la.org or through the 511 mobile app for real-time traffic updates…
“Or can also download the 511 app on their mobile phones. Either one of those will provide motorist or the public with access to these new cameras.”
