My grievance is the lack of a major interstate and having to use 61 or plank Rd to get to BR. Livingston and Ascension have their flaws, but at least they provide interstate access.

Having direct interstate access isn't all it's cracked up to be. Drive time from Zachary to Downtown Baton Rouge in the AM is about 20 minutes. The drive from Prairieville to Downtown BR in the AM is about 45 minutes on an average day (per a co-worker).

I'll agree Hwy 19 sucks driving through that shithole Baker and their camera tickets. I'm pretty certain HWY 61 moves faster than the interstate near Livingston and Ascension during peak hours.
