What killed the Westbank vibe for me was the traffic on LA-1 and having to cross the Miss River Bridge or take the ferry.

This situation pisses me off. Years ago they talked about building a new bridge in Brusly, but the residents that lived by the projected site threw a fit. Evidently the state has hired consultants to do studies (if I had to guess, someone has a friend who owns a consultant group and they found something to push for them to get a project with that state because what the study revealed was nothing no one didn't know already).

The good thing about the ferry now is that they run two. So instead of every 30 mins, there is one on both sides every 15mins. They stop running both from like 10AM - 2PM, but a new bridge would make it so much better. Once you get on the east side from the ferry, Nicholson isn't that far, you can then get on Bluebonnet
