Why is I-12 not just part of I-10? The part of I-10 that goes through NOLA should be named something else.

What do you want it to be called?

I-10(a)
I-10S
I-10 2: Electric Boogaloo?

I-10 was built first and connected through NOLA. 12 came a decade later when they decided a norther route would help connect the north shore and provide faster access to 55/59.

Despite the fact that 12 spurs both ends off of 10, it’s still it’s own interstate.

They put I-10 through New Orleans for the economic impact. They thought a 3 number spur through New Orleans would hurt the city. Little did they know back then they had bigger problems coming.
