The mayor-president also said she will convene a panel of experts to find solutions to Baton Rouge's notoriously bad traffic problems.

"Trains, trams and Zipcars must be embraced as a components to a comprehensive transportation agenda that includes all corners of the city," Broome said.

Looks like the loop isn't on the list

How does a loop help North BR? She doesn't care about the commuters, only those that get her votes.

Unless her panel of experts has a time machine I'm not sure there is an answer

The original plan was to put it in White Castle. My cousin was an engineer who worked on the St. Francisville bridge. They were supposed to finish that one an start on the WC one.

News flash, the loop doesn't exist because of nimby dicks in livingston and ascension.

So, since the mayor can't snap their finger and make a loop happen, maybe they should work within what they do have control of?

I know that's tough for you to understand.

This guy lives in the 70805.

I get the nimby asshat, but this mayor is not concerned with the traffic coming in to BR.

The real show is going to be when they release the Alton Sterling results in the next week or so.

Only one of these things is actually feasible.
