That would be false… this is mainly about the container traffic generated which would be too much for Judge Perez, St B Highway, and Paris Road
I've seen a lot of comments saying if it was needed here it should be at that location. Of course many others are saying no port, no where at all.

anything past Chalmette is very isolated… the easternmost water boundary of our parish is closer to Alabama than New Orleans
And hardly anyone lives there.

Port NOLA and SoS have been horrible at the messaging.
Port NOLA has failed at the PR game big time. True or not it the optics make it look like the port is trying to cram this down the throats of the residents of St. Bernard.
No one has come out and said anything about the infrastructure which needs to be built. No one has said how this will mess with property values. No one has said anything except it'll create jobs. Ok what jobs? For how long?
It's a cluster from both sides. And I say this as a transplant to St. Bernard who commutes into NOLA every day.
