NEW ORLEANS - An attempt to update Hollywood Road in Terrebonne Parish has tangled the Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government (TPCA), the U.S. Department of Transportation, U.S. DOT Secretary Pete Buttigieg, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and FHWA Administrator Stephanie Pollock in federal court.
According to a lawsuit filed on April 6 in New Orleans, plaintiff TPCA applied for and was awarded use of FHWA funds through the Louisiana Federal-Aid Highway Program, a roadway cost-sharing program that takes 80% of road update costs off of local entities. The program is administered by the DOT.
TPCA entered into an agreement for the Hollywood Road construction with contractor Conti Enterprises Inc., with the DOT as an underlying party at the requirement of the DOT.
