Union Pacific completed installation of a new bridge at Bayou Lafourche in Donaldsonville, La., over the weekend.
The new 102-foot steel bridge is a key part of Louisiana's efforts to reintroduce freshwater from the Mississippi River into Bayou Lafourche. The original crossing was made up of box culverts that limited the amount of water that could pass through in the levee. The project is part of a multi-organizational partnership led by the Bayou Lafourche Fresh Water District (BLFWD).
