Lafayette Commuter Connections

Strong Communities Need Strong Connections.

Lafayette Commuter Connections is a parishwide transportation strategy focused on the routes that move people, workers, families, and commerce across Lafayette Parish every day.

Our lives don't stop at city limits.

Every day, residents cross municipal boundaries to work, attend school, visit doctors, shop, and support local businesses. The roads they rely on connect our communities, and our transportation planning should do the same.

Lafayette Commuter Connections brings the parish and its six municipalities together to address the corridors no single community can improve alone.

Better Connections Mean:

Stronger Infrastructure

Roadway projects coordinated with drainage improvements whenever feasible.

Safer Travel

Strategic improvements based on crash data, roadway conditions, and engineering analysis.

Less Time in Traffic

More reliable trips and fewer delays on the routes people use most.

A More Competitive Parish

Better movement for workers, customers, emergency responders, and commerce.

One Parish. Six Municipalities. A Shared Transportation Network.

Local communities will continue addressing local infrastructure needs. As an initiative of Lafayette Consolidated Government, Lafayette Commuter Connections focuses on the major routes that connect those communities and serve residents across city lines.

Renewing funding—not a new tax.

No new tax rate. Continued investment. Parishwide impact.

The December 2026  proposal would renew an existing bond investment to fund priority transportation projects throughout Lafayette Parish. It’s important to note the facts:

  1. Existing Investment. The proposal renews an existing funding commitment voted on by the people of Lafayette Parish.
  2. No New Tax Rate. Residents would not see an increase in the current rate as a result of the renewal.
  3. Dedicated Projects. Funding would support the transportation projects identified in the bond package.
