Credited from: CBSNEWS

  • A 2017 report identified Bourbon Street as a potential terrorism target, prompting the installation of protective bollards.
  • Despite the warnings, a recent attack claimed 14 lives when a truck was driven down the street by an individual linked to ISIS.
  • The bollards, originally set to be replaced ahead of the Super Bowl, were under repair, with recommendations for immediate fixes provided back in 2019.
  • City officials have faced criticism for delayed actions, as the construction to replace bollards did not begin until late 2024.
  • Mayor Cantrell is now questioning the strength of the newly installed bollards, seeking expert assessments for their effectiveness against future attacks.
