Why not a bypass loop north of Baton Rouge above the ship traffic zone. Population density would be much lower and smaller boat spans would be faster construction.

Why not repave hwy 90 to a truck acceptable surface and reroute much of the traffic passing through BR

Mainly because no one on i10 is really going that way. Connecting 10 and 12 from the south keeps traffic flowing down that 10 corridor, and allows for the bypass to 12 for those that wish to avoid both NOLA and BR.

That connection could easily continue north then back west from there but again, there isn't much going on that direction.
