JONES, Judge.

This appeal arises out of an expropriation pursuant to LSA-R.S. 48:441 et seq. The Department of Highways expropriated 1.593 acres of a 4.493 acre tract owned by defendant for construction of Inner Loop Expressway, for the widening and improvement of Linwood Avenue and for widening and improvement of Idema Street. The lower court awarded defendant $27,100 for the property taken and $7,500 for severance damages to the remainder. The Department appeals complaining of the severance damage award and defendant answers seeking an increase in both awards. We affirm.
