Discovery Baton Rouge school expansion traffic and drainage

The Discovery school wants a 20,000-square-foot middle school classroom building on South Harrell's Ferry Road, but neighbors say carpool lines already block driveways for five minutes at a time and back up traffic to the fire station 500 feet away. The case was deferred 30 days so the school can hold a community meeting.
