Is there a bigger shite show than the Walker I-12 exit "improvement"?

Despite untold investment in redoing the interchange with the damn roundabout that no one can properly traverse, there continues to be a mile long string of traffic sitting on the shoulder of I-12 waiting to exit every day.

WTF

Was just there yesterday and you right it’s terrible. I usually like the round abouts but that thing is confusing as all hell.

The Covington/Madisonville and Covington/Mandeville exits off I-12 would put the Walker I-12 exit to shame.

It's still a construction zone without all of the lanes open, so I'll give it time before I call it a complete cluster frick.

It's still not complete. I'll reserve my criticism for when the job is done

I've never seen anyone have trouble with that roundabout. Don't really know what you're talking about.

Drive through Jacksonville AR, then you can say yes to your question.

Yes.
The concrete medians constructed in orange beach that don't allowing crossing lanes, forcing u-turns everywhere will be studied in civil engineering textbooks on what not to do for years to come.

Y'all need a loop or a monorail.

I still have hope that the folks of the LP have more driving abilities than the Hammondites down the road. I'm not sure what Tangipahoa/Hammond planners were thinking when they put, not 1, not 2, but 3 got damn turnabouts back to back to back. Most of the folks in that area have a real difficult time turning left out of anywhere, much less navigate the turnarounds.

They're absolutely the worst during high traffic volumes.
