Those 35 people in New Roads who need to get across the river every day have such an easy commute now that they don't have to wait 15 minutes for the ferry.
Meanwhile, the 120K plus cars coming through Baton Rouge are like:
Louisiana is so backwards

There is a shite load of people that cross that bridge every morning/ evening

So because Baton Rouge traffic sucks we shouldn’t build bridges elsewhere. Makes sense

Fishin false river then huntin St Francisville baw!

Well you’re sure hitting the sauce early.
In less than 10 years, they will have more lanes added to most likely fully delay the expected 168K vehicles coming through.
Those aren’t rookie numbers.

Who forced you to live in BR and not new roads?
Posted on 8/30/18 at 7:10 am to LSUTigerFan247
Yep. Burn all the existing bridges and build them only in Baton Rouge. That’ll work

Honestly, what can be done about Baton Rouge? Build another bridge? Where?
Baton Rouge needs an entirely new transportation infrastructure - a generational project and by the time it would be completed, it will be obsolete. Rare intersection of demographics, sudden population growth, geography, politics, etc., have doomed the situation. A blind man can see it.

People in that area were willing to give up”their back yard” to build that bridge.
Posted on 8/30/18 at 7:16 am to LSUTigerFan247
Well to their credit new roads and st Francisville figured out a location everyone could agree on, sucks that br can’t figure out where to put a loop because of all the nimby’s

You might be taken more seriously if you didn't just completely make up those numbers for the St. Francisville Bridge and ferry wait time.

Regulations for escape from the nuke plant dictated a bridge.
Itll never happen but they need to draw a straight line from the basin at grosse tete to i10 on the south side of BR, and connect to a bridge there. Allow a bypass. Then put a 10-12 connector around Denham so you can actually get from one to the other.

The people that lived in West Feliciana and Pointe Coupee wanted it and advocated for a bridge to replace the ferry since the 1960s. Funding was secured in the 1980s, and construction didn't start until 2006, with the bridge opening some time in 2011.
It wasn't just a random outlay.

I don't miss it. Not...One....Bit....
Except my LSU days, those 10 years I'd relive.

Building a bridge elsewhere is not the reason Baton Rouge traffic remains fricked. They don't even know what they can do to fix it. Are we supposed to paralyze infrastructure everywhere else across the state while they conduct more studies that likewise conclude that they don't know how to fix it?
Posted on 8/30/18 at 8:00 am to LSUTigerFan247
Don't worry the state is getting it's money back one speeding ticket at a time on that bridge. BTW I am glad it is there.

BR has its own traffic problems but that bridge to nowhere was an idiotic waste of money that benefits relatively no one.
Does make the camp on False River an easier drive from Natchez though.
