On November 1, 2016, Barriere Construction celebrated completion of an asphalt plant in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The new plant expands Barriere’s footprint in the Louisiana economy and represents the company’s confidence in the future growth and vitality of the greater Baton Rouge community.

For over 60 years, Barriere Construction has called Louisiana home and helped drive the growth of communities across the state. With numerous public and private sector construction projects throughout Louisiana, Barriere delivers on its commitment to safely build the state’s infrastructure with people, equipment, and new facilities. The new Baton Rouge asphalt plant expands on this mission, adding new direct and indirect jobs to the Baton Rouge economy.

Safe operations, environmental protection and quality performance of the new plant are top priorities for Barriere. As an environmentally conscious company, voluntary clean up procedures and environmental impact reports are a critical aspect of operations at the Baton Rouge plant.
