About this Project

Atchafalaya Basin Levee:
Parting the waters is an everyday miracle at HD Truck & Tractor.
Winding bayous and saturated soils make virtually every Southwest Louisiana construction site a waterfront property. Fortunately for our clients, HD Truck & Tractor is at home in any element, whether preparing ground for development in low-lying areas or building at the edge of open water.

In Centerville, Louisiana, we raised and shaped 51,000 cubic yards of embankment to reconstruct five miles of the Atchafalaya Basin Levee protecting lives and livelihoods in St. Mary Parish. Our berm construction in downtown Lake Charles keeps area homes and businesses safe from storm surge. When access to water is wanted, we build boardwalks, docks and marinas that bring the beauty and bounty of Louisiana’s waters within reach.
