Contractors are now testing the new colored light system on the Crescent City Connection.

The $20 million project decorates the bridge with lights that can change into different colors and patterns. The idea is to give the bridge a "wow factor" when the Super Bowl returns to New Orleans in February.

Installation of the project has caused major traffic jams on a bridge that carries more than 160,000 cars a day.

The project is expected to be finished in late December or early January, in time for Super Bowl LIX.
