AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Vibrio vulnificus Health Alert: Louisiana health officials say 9 Vibrio vulnificus cases this year have led to 5 deaths, with infections tied to warm Gulf waters and often starting from wounds exposed to seawater—so beachgoers should avoid coastal water with cuts and be extra careful with raw or undercooked shellfish. Road & Travel Disruptions: DOTD is planning intermittent lane closures on Shreveport’s LA 3132 (Aug. 17–28) for a signage project, with work expected to run through fall 2026. Baton Rouge Growth & Traffic: A $28M MOVEBR project breaks ground to widen Nicholson Drive near LSU from two to four lanes, aiming to cut daily congestion; construction is expected to finish in 2028. Tourism & Hospitality Watch: Visit Baton Rouge is seeking to take control of Raising Cane’s River Center operations as part of a downtown redevelopment push, including a possible headquarters hotel. New Orleans Safety Update: A former officer accused in a New Orleans mass shooting plot was released after a grand jury declined to indict. Lafayette Buc-ee’s: Permits are in for a planned Buc-ee’s travel plaza near I-10, with a projected 2028 opening.
