Designed by New Orleans-based Sizeler Thompson Brown Architects, the 29,120-square foot New Orleans Regional Transportation Management Center contains the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development and the New Orleans Regional Planning Commission. The facility houses traffic management personnel who work in the technologically advanced facility, which features Intelligent Transportation Systems technology allowing greater communications between traffic operations staff and the greater New Orleans community.
Finished in October 2009, F.L. Crane & Sons Fulton, Miss., installed 8,001 square feet of 20-gauge 
Profile Series Style-Rib with Microseam Corners in Slate Gray with a smooth Duragard coating from Moon Township, Pa.-based CENTRIA. Additionally, CENTRIA supplied 2,018 square feet of FormaBond 8-mm R&R in Platinum with a smooth Sundance Mica coating as well as 1,534 square feet of 22/26-gauge 2-inch horizontal Formawall Dimension Series in Platinum with an embossed Sundance Mica coating. The facility also features CENTRIA’s Formavue FV400 windows and Formavue FV300 windows. The Slate Gray color blended nicely with the Platinum color of the other products and provided both consistency and depth to the exterior aesthetic. The Profile Series and Formawall Dimension Series are both Cradle to Cradle Silver certified. The Shaw Group Inc., Baton Rouge, La., served as the general contractor.
