To be fair, that’s not what she said. She said that the governor informed her that contraflow could not be implemented due to time constraints and if contraflow can’t be activated, she can’t order a mandatory evacuation of New Orleans.


There should be a plan in place to put contraflow in effect within hours. No excuse that isn't already in place.

I 100% agree. But that’s JBE’s court. Not the mayor of NO.

You could tell in the conference she wanted to declare evacuation but it would be a mistake to attempt it without the support of contraflow.

Houston has this very thing in place…and it has been in place since Hurricane Alicia hit in 1983.

Get with the fricking program, NOLA.
