On 10E, take hwy 61 to 3213, which crosses river and dead ends at 3127. Take a left and that will take you all the way to 310.

It saves you 5-10 min and you stay off the interstate and can avoid a lot of time if there are any wrecks on the bridges.

Last weekend I paid my toll at geauxpass.com on my iPhone without stopping. I was in a hurry and it was awesome. Prob not the safest method, but there is absolutely no reason to stop at that stupid arse kiosk center.

im leaving baton rouge and heading down there in a couple hours myself. is it quicker to go through boutee or to go sunshine and hit 308 that way?

---

Boutte is quicker than Sunshine. Veterans Memorial is quicker than Boutte.

From Mathews (exit 215 A and 215 B) is it really quicker to travel on 308 as opposed to LA 1 until you get to LA 3225??

I made it! I didn't see any cops. The water is about like gulf shores, and I can't wait to start fishing.
Eta. And who are the rich people in cutoff in those huge houses?

I made that same trip today.
