Some Parish Streets Still Impassable To School Buses

Members of the St. James Parish School Board Tuesday repeatedly assured parents that they are doing all they can to provide school bus service down all parish streets. Due to low hanging power lines, debris stacked at the side of the streets, and cars parked along already narrow streets, some streets are impassable to cars and buses. The affected streets on the west bank include Simon, Luther King, Leno, Perkins, and Inness. The east bank streets include South Caroldale Apartments, Antioch Street, Bourbon, T. Poche, Convent Station, Babin Wilson, Tree Street, North King Avenue between West Main and 5th Streets, Levi Gaudet, and 3rd Street between 7th Street and 8th Streets. Board Attorney Kelly Cook said bus turnarounds are sometimes blocked by residents and others who choose to park there. Board members extended their appreciation to the bus drivers for navigating the streets and roadways since the hurricane. Until the streets are cleared parents must take their children to meet the bus at the head of the street.
