DENHAM SPRINGS, LA (WAFB) -
People in
Livingston Parish said conditions are getting worse after another round of
heavy rains pounded the area Thursday morning.
One of the
streets experiencing flooding problems is Larry Drive in Denham Springs.
Many people
there have turned to boats as their main form of transportation.
Residents
said the area isn't known for flooding, but the last three heavy rains have
created problems.
Brian
Fairburn, the assistant director of DPW in the parish, said 78 roads had water
over them Thursday morning.
Barricades
or high water signs have been placed on those to let people know they are
closed or there is danger.
Fairburn
added 486 tons of sand has been hauled to area fire stations for people to bag
and place around their homes.
However,
there are many areas that have so much water the bags won't work.
