Its a stretch of highway with a lot of sharp curves and hills. Understandable there are so many wrecks

I’m a member of the “Pissed off the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge” Club after a four+ hour stoppage.

I guess if the accident is right in front of you I can give you a pass for waiting that long. But with Waze and some creative driving I think down a shell road, you can detour to 190 if you are not on the bridge. I heard about the shell road from this board. Luckily, I never have had to use it, since I don’t drive that way very often.

You can do that even if you are on the bridge

I remember the year some oil well caught fire the day before thanksgiving and had to detour through Morgan city to get back to Baton Rouge. That was miserable. Think the bridge was closed for a week.

Driving in a straight line is tough, baw.

I was part of that mess too.
Pain in my arse with 2 kids and bitching wife.
She acted like I could change that shite.

Hopefully she's hot.

We are divorced now but at the time she was bitching all I could see was Marie Laveau.

Did a little bit of digging. The escape route of Basin traffic hell is LA-975. It is so sketchy Google Street View has not ventured on this state route.
It is gravel like LA-10 across the basin.
I guess the state does want to pave it in case of a basin flood which has happened maybe 2 or 3 times since the Morganza spillway was established.

that runs through the Atchafalaya NWR and Sherburne WMA...there was a road closure not long ago for repairs...

Took that road once. I wonder how many bodies are hidden out there.

That was 2007. I remember I needed to get up for the Arkansas game which we still played on a Friday and had to reroute through Opelousas and go through all those speed traps like Krotz Springs and all that shite
