Lee Drive Gets Temporary Fix | Baton Rouge News

This quick fix, described as a “pit stop,” aims to ease daily commutes while the major expansion continues. Mayor Sid Edwards confirmed residents’ frustration with the rough road conditions and emphasized this patch-up is about immediate relief—not a permanent solution—keeping drivers safer and smoother until the full project kicks in.
