The City of Slidell announces the temporary closure of Bayou Lane, the road running through Heritage Park from Pennsylvania Avenue to the Heritage Park Boat Launch, starting at 6:00 a.m. on Saturday, November 2. This closure is necessary to allow city crews to install festive Christmas decorations in preparation for the annual Slidell’s Bayou Christmas celebration.

Crews will work diligently to complete the installation, with the road anticipated to reopen on Saturday, November 9 at 6:00 a.m. While Bayou Lane will be closed to through traffic during this time, the Heritage Park Boat Launch will remain open and accessible to the public.

The City of Slidell appreciates the community’s patience and cooperation as we prepare to bring the holiday spirit to Heritage Park. We look forward to welcoming residents and visitors to enjoy Slidell’s Bayou Christmas and other holiday events in Heritage Park.
