There is definitely a difference in time. Unless you drive 90-95 on the bridge without having to stop at all for traffic. Then it might be about the same.

Just do the simple thing and take I-10. If you get to Juarez you've gone a bit too far. Circle back on I-20 through Abilene and that'll get you there.

I-10-HWY190-I-49
Staying on 10 to laffy adds a bunch of unnecessary miles and time.

Tell you what, you give me a 30 minute head start from the Lobdell exit off 1-10, we both do the posted speed limit, and I will be waiting for you when you get to the northern Opelousas city limits on 1-49.

Take it from a Houston resident, avoid the Houston alt route unless you absolutely have to. I-45 will be a nightmare due to the college schedules for UH, TA&M, plus the LSU faithful, not to mention the yahoo's that live here.

Option A is by far the best...there are good amounts of 75 MPH on both I-49 and I-20...
one word of caution...do be careful on I-49 when you go through St Landry parish, as it is a hell of a speed trap...

This is the correct answer.

I have taken 71 from 190 and gone to Bunkie and gotten on 49 from there. About 3 people use that highway now so you can go about as fast as you want.
The state trooper I met on that road last January disagrees with this.

This is the only way I go when going to Alexandria.
Driving the basin is for fricking idiots.

Super boring, but that's the route

If you get to Dallas, you've gone too far. That's the shippy side of the metroplex.

The problem with I-10 to Laffayette is if you get stuck on the bridge over the Atchafalaya. I would take 190 and if its bad you have the 71 option. I refuse to get stuck on i10 after one time about 10 years ago. Sat still for 5 hours in the pouring rain due to a chemical truck over turning

I met that same trooper...most difficult time I have ever had getting a ticket fixed, too...

Skip 190. I have done this drive many more times than I wish to remember. I have timed the trip going both ways and taking 10 to 49 to 20 is the fastest route. Plus, the odds of you getting a ticket along the way are far less.

Taking 190 saves at least 30 min.
