The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) has closed Main Road from Millhaven at I-20 to Ruby Road at Russell Sage Wildlife Management Area (WMA) because of high water brought on by flooding.
 
Increasing water levels in associated river systems has caused backwater flooding on this thoroughfare. Once the water recedes, traffic will be permitted.
 
Russell Sage WMA is located in Morehouse, Ouachita, Richland, and Caldwell parishes and is approximately seven miles east of Monroe and 10 miles west of Rayville.
