The Department of Public Works began implementing infrastructure fixes and traffic improvements in New Orleans' central business district on October 23, 2026. These adjustments included resyncing several lights along Poydras Street, which had previously impeded traffic flow. Officials stated that the Department of Public Works is also reviewing signal timing at other intersections, including Canal and South Rampart, which has been a difficult area for cars and streetcars.
