Has anyone been trough Slidell in the past few days headed to Gulf Shores? How's the traffic. I heard it's only backed up going west bound.

Mainly west bound on Sundays in the middle of the day. Came back last Sunday early and never slowed down. We left OB around 6:30am

This was posted today LINK about not doing work this or next weekend.

Google maps with the traffic layer will show red if backed up.

All clear at the moment

It was backed up to the Mandeville exit last week headed to Gulf Shores. Get the Waze app and let it navigate you around that mess.

EB you should be fine. Don't come home on the weekend unless you leave super early.

Waze app shows all the cops too :-)

Eta-they keep switching between EB and WB. Last weekend it was WB. Double check that.

Dotd website has a great alternate route.

Take the first exit option. 13? Then get back on at the first option-smooth sailing.
