Alternate route from BR to Lafayette

With the bridge inspections, which is the best alternate route if I didn't want to worry about getting caught up in that mess? How much longer does it make the trip?

They are only closing one lane and it is only for a short time. Check out the exact times and plan accordingly. Those alternate routes look long.

OP can't use Google maps on his own, you think he will plan accordingly...

Going TO Lafayette from BR should only be a problem today (Friday). I'd advise taking US 190. Morgan City route will take a couple of hours at best. Westbound is not scheduled for inspection closures again until mid next week.
Eastbound is gonna be hell this weekend. If you must travel eastbound between Lafayette and BR, I suggest bringing a tent and food and water.

You realize it is the home opener for LSU this weekend, right? And it's against an in-state school, which will increase the number of people coming into BR, right?
