No, Baton Rouge's need for a new bridge or loop doesn't change the fact that I-10 needed to be widened 25 years ago.
This would have to happen regardless.

Exactly right.
This project needed to be done whether you build a loop or not.
All interstates in EBR need to be a minimum, of six lanes (3 in each direction). With this project and the one for Highland on East we will be close if not there when completed. There would be no bottlenecks in the parish.
Hopefully the planners can see fit to incorporate a by-pass or a couple of by-passes or even a loop in the mid range plans and get that started using private companies and toll roads.
But this project had to advance and the fact that it took so long is an indication of how politics drives this state instead of practicality.
