These bridges have been needing to be built for 30 years or more. However, all the North LA politicians don't want to spend big money on South LA projects, no matter how important for the entire state. Then you have the local parish politicians that bicker and fight over the trivial things like putting the bridge in their parish instead of the best place for overall traffic flow and area wide economic growth.

The LA governor is so powerful yet they use their power for stupid crap like influencing LSU and COVID lockdowns.
We need a governor who will say... we have this money... we have this need... this will be paid for mainly by the feds with a state match... this is where the new bridge will go... STFU.
I don't understand how the 14 people who still live in North Louisiana have any political say at all.
