According to the DOT...

The project involved widening 7.63 miles of road- way on La. 28, from its intersection with La. 8 to the intersection of La. 121. The scope of the project was to add to two travel lanes and a median to the existing two-lane roadway, creating a four-lane divided high- way. The existing pavement also was replaced. This project is the second project of six to be com- pleted along the La. 8/La. 28 corridor between U.S. 171 in Vernon Parish and Bayou Boeuf in Rapides Parish. More than 40 miles will be widened in the complete project; currently, it is 30 percent complete.

The road between Leesville and Alexandria is now completed.

Is it a toll road?

No...not yet. Wearing seat belts was voluntary at one time, remember. Illegal aliens used to mean you were a criminal, now it just means you have more rights than an American citizen. Things aren't always what they seem to appear to mean
