Build a loop, another bridge, or something like that. Last thing we need is a wider interstate INSIDE the city. So, so, so stupid. It would be better to spend 5x more on a loop than $350 million on a dumb fricking project like this.



The problem is that stuff has to go through Ascension Parish and Livingston Parish. Those people fear change and are professional NIMBYs. They've killed loops before and will do it again. They can't see the benefits past the Parish line.

Live in LP. I'll gladly sell my land for a loop. Don't know many who wouldn't.
