Cloyd Benjamin, Jr.’s message to Ward 1

Thank you for casting 3,243 votes for fairness, justice, and a court that is more responsive to the people it serves. From knocking on doors to putting up signs in the summer heat, I had the privilege of listening to thousands of you across Ward 1. In conversation after conversation, I heard the same message. We can do better, and our City Court and parish have a role to play. I loved being out there with you, and I would gladly do it all over again wherever I can be of service.

Drivers on Greenacres Boulevard in Bossier City will face intersection closures and a temporary traffic shift beginning Nov. 17 as crews replace a deteriorated section of roadway. The repairs are part of the City of Bossier City's 2025 Streets and Drainage Improvements Program, according to a community announcement.
