U-club people can’t even get out of their neighborhood in the morning without having a cop block traffic to let them out. They think they have stroke, but they don’t even have enough stroke to get a red light put up.

Building a road that exits I-10 just east of Grosse Tete connecting to a bridge by Dow and putting a road through Spanish Lake to Bluff Rd. is what needs to happen. A lot of the proposals have bridge traffic going to LA-30, but for that to happen LA-30 would have to be completely redone from LSU to Gonzales and I have no idea how’d they’d propose to fix the mess around I-10 in Gonzales.

The Dow-adjacent crossing has already been ruled out, supposedly for navigational reasons. There isn't enough money to do the Grosse Tete connection, but you're right that it needs to happen.



One of the routes south of Plaquemine seems to be the ticket.

From everything I’ve read and seen there is no consideration to building this bridge and extending the highway eastward past 30.
The mission is to connect La 1 and 30 the best way possible.
Considerations are River safety, environment, traffic counts, tolls, and costs.

Just doing an interstate quality road from Gross Pointe to the 3127 corridor would make huge gains.

NOLA traffic from the west has no need to cross the river before Sunshine, Gramercy, Hale Boggs or Huey P.

1 road gets you 4 bridges. Idiots at DOTD have no clue.
