Driveways Along the US 80 Corridor
Asphalt paving in Red Chute is mainly residential: driveway replacements, extensions and repairs in the subdivisions east of Bossier City. Red Chute is an unincorporated census-designated place in Bossier Parish, about 9.2 square miles at 207 feet of elevation, with 7,065 residents in 2020. It first appeared as a CDP in the 1990 census with 5,431 people, so much of its housing dates from the 1970s through the 2000s.
Driveways at replacement age
Cost guides give asphalt driveways a life of roughly 15 to 30 years. Many Red Chute driveways are at or past that range. Signs it is time: alligator cracking, sunken areas near the street, and edges breaking up. We check whether the base can be reused before quoting.
Roads and access
US 80/79 is the main road, running about 8 miles west to downtown Shreveport. Interstate 20 forms the southern edge of the CDP but has no direct access; the closest interchange is Exit 17 on I-220. Homes along US 80 connect to a federal highway, so driveway work in the right-of-way there falls under a Louisiana DOTD access connection permit.
Parish rules
Because Red Chute is unincorporated, there is no city government. For work touching parish roads, we check Bossier Parish requirements before scheduling.
Low ground, slow drainage
Red Chute sits on low, flat ground east of the river. Driveways here need a clear path for water to the street or ditch and a well-compacted base.
Common Red Chute projects
The jobs we see most here are full driveway replacements on homes from the 1980s and 1990s, extensions for an extra vehicle, and repairs where the driveway meets the street. On those older drives, the first few feet near the road often fail first because that is where runoff collects. We rebuild that section with a deeper base and set the slope so water leaves the driveway instead of pooling on it.
Scheduling around the weather
Red Chute's flat ground stays wet after heavy rain, so we watch the forecast and do base work in dry spells. Summer paving starts early in the day, before the heat softens fresh asphalt too much for traffic.

Red Chute Questions
Who handles permits in Red Chute?
Red Chute is unincorporated, so parish rules apply on parish roads, and DOTD handles connections to US 80/79.
My driveway is 25 years old. Replace or resurface?
If the base is sound, resurfacing can work. If there are soft spots or widespread cracking, replacement is the better value.
Can you extend my driveway for an extra car?
Yes, with a full base under the new section and a clean joint to the old.
How much does a driveway replacement cost?
Angi lists removal and replacement at about $8 to $15 per square foot. A two-car driveway of about 400 square feet falls in the low thousands. We give you a written price after the site visit.
