Widening of I-12 moves to Walker this spring
The widening of Interstate 12 from Juban Road to Walker just took a giant leap forward. Barriere Construction is the firm in charge of adding an additional lane of travel in each direction. The $21.9 million project is expected to begin in early March, and finish by the Spring of 2013. Read all about it in the November issue of The Walker Report here.
