Shreveport Leaders Want to Hear from You about More Bike Paths

Shreveport is holding a community meeting Thursday to talk about more bike paths for the city. This would be phase 2 of the project.

The meeting will be held at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, February 15, at Central Art Station, 801 Crockett Street.
