I drove it from Boutte to the Raceland exit a few hours ago and it was fine. Dont know about anything beyond that stretch though.

I forget what overpass it is, but it's quite bumpy. You'll nearly get airborne. It's quite fun/alarming.

Someone posted a la road closure map in the stickied thread, on page 66-67 I think. Thought i remembered seeing 90 closed somewhere between Houma and race land. I'll try to find the link

ETA: it's an app and I'm having trouble linking it.

ETA2: here it is LINK

The road closure is around Gibson but it's probably the exit off 90 in the swamp there

The westbound stretch of 90 right after the Calumet exit going through the trees used to be awful/awesome. Taking the bus for sports in school, we'd always run to the back to see how high we could fly off those seats.

The Franklin overpass is an engineering marvel. They built it in such a way that regardless of the speed of your vehicle or the wheelbase of your vehicle, you'll experience the same jarring reverberations.

It is quite a feat.
