The state fricked us. Wouldn't fund a new bridge. The I-10 bridge should have been replaced 20 years ago.
I had the chief engineer with the DOTD come and speak at a conference prior to the 210 traffic. Guy literally said that "roughly 40,000 is the max operating capacity of the i-10 bridge... there are roughly 70-90,000 vehicles currently crossing it daily"... I wrote it down lol. We asked if that was safe, considering it had outlived it's expected lifespan... he said something along the lines of yea it should be safe or yea its safe.

Per Baton Rouge Advocate regarding the Misissippi River Bridge.
"The corridor is one of the most heavily congested – and complained about – in the Baton Rouge area.About 180,000 cars and trucks cross the bridge daily."
This along with the single lane coming off of the east bound dirrection makes for a major cluster frick no matter the day or time. I don't know how bad it is in Lake Charles, but it's hard to think it could be worst considering the circumstances.
