I'm not trying to be sarcastic or confrontational, but is it wise to build additional lanes that are only needed and used 7 - 8 Saturdays per year? If the existing roads are sufficient for the other 357 days, I think we have to find ways to make traffic flow better on those 7 - 8 days.

If there are daily backups and congestion on say, Nicholson, Highland, and Lee Drive, then adding lanes would be a win-win. Keep in mind, though, that buying the needed property from the existing owners would probably be prohibitively expensive.

Yes! We left at start of 4th quarter to head back to Lake Charles. By the time we got to interstate game was long over. Post game contra flow is a cluster.

The honest reality of it is that I have to drive back an hour and half to the westbank to make it home, and that cutoff between traffic completely sucking and not being that bad makes about an hours worth of time for my commute

Sucks but it is what it is.


I didn’t leave til 0:00 tonight though
