Just a heads up to the weekend travelers who are heading West on I-10 this weekend. Hat tip to the thread on tRant.

The inside lane on I-10 west from the Mississippi River Bridge to the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge will be closed starting Friday afternoon.

According to DOTD, the closure will start at 6:30 p.m. Friday and will last until 6:30 a.m. Monday morning. Traffic officials say the closure is needed for asphalt rehabilitation.

Drivers are urged to avoid I-10 west between Baton Rouge and Lafayette and use US 190 as an alternate route.

Yeah, just wait til there's an accident on 190 this weekend. Then it'll be real fun.

KATC vs WRBZ, who has it right? Sounds like a news fight.

This doesn't make sense. Iberville parish has gotten new asphalt twice in the last five years or so. Its not in bad shape at all. If anything they need to redo from the Basin bridge to Lafayette.
