City of Scott ‘Ramabout’ Wins Best of Show at Louisiana Municipal Association’s Annual Convention for the Apollo Road Project—Mayor Jan-Scott Richard, along with Fenstermaker Engineer Manager Anna Doucet, PE, share insight into the Apollo Road Project’s significance and lasting impact.
Honored to be recognized for this innovative infrastructure project, Mayor Jan-Scott Richard shares,
“The Apollo Road Corridor is a tribute to the visionaries who saw its potential for connecting Scott to Lafayette and beyond. It’s already driving economic development, improving drainage, and bringing new residential opportunities to our city.”
Fenstermaker Engineer Manager Anna Doucet, PE, added:
“We focused on alleviating congestion and enhancing walkability, while also ensuring long-term safety with elevated roadways and advanced drainage systems, including a 27-foot-wide concrete arch and box culverts.”
The 2.2-mile, 4-lane boulevard, which connects critical points like Acadiana High School and the local library, also serves as a vital evacuation route, elevated above the Base Flood Elevation to ensure community safety in emergencies.
Congratulations to the City of Scott on this incredible achievement—we are proud to stand behind you, support your efforts, and be part of the continued success in your thriving community.
