People complain and forget other places don't have to deal with the giant fricking river that you need to put a 140 foot high bridge across.
this and make that at least 4 more bridges across that giant river that should have been built at least 10 years ago.

Bridges have been built in St. Francisville and Lutcher. The bridges serve about 10,000 cars a day combined.

Louisiana political mentality, spend a billion on a bridge for 5000 cars a day in a rural area rather than putting it in an urban area and serving 50,000 cars a day, in order to be "fair" to the rural legislators.

The Capital outlay bill has to be evenly divided between urban and rural areas in order to pass. That is why city dwellers sit in traffic on roads built for a population half the size, while a town with 1200 people gets a new swimming pool and civic center for their city park.
