All my navigation apps are still showing I-10 East as fastest route to BR.

I’m calling bullshite. Is it really only a 21 minute delay at the Basin Bridge?

9 minutes is worth it to me to keep moving.

Last week we went on 190 .. basin traffic was stuck stuck stuck per friends. Waze and google didn’t reroute us but we chose to. Our friends thought Waze wouldn’t steer them wrong.

Also idk where you’re coming g from but looking at google maps, my trip to BR at this point would be 2.5 hours .. it’s normally 1.5.

Take 190.

These apps suck. Exactly 1 mile before I-49 they say our bad get off now and take 190. Currently on 190.

You’ll be glad you get. My husband normally drives when we’re going to games and my “job” is to check all traffic apps that I have when we get onto I-10 from Ambassador Caffery.

The bridge sucks.

Safe travels.

I do this drive daily. For about three or so days, I struggled through the traffic because of the small hole in the bridge.

First day, left at 3 pm, got home at 6:30
Second day, left at 2:30, got home at 5:30
Third day left at 4 got home at 7

Fourth day took 90 ( today) got home in 1 hour and 50 minutes with pretty steady traffic on 90 because the secret was no longer a secret.

Waze has steered me wrong a couple of times and ended up in stand still traffic.

Take 190. Stop at Bourque's in Port Barre and get some sausage, boudin and jalapeno cheese bread.

I commute the bridge daily. 190 is faster while this work is going on. Delay on 10 is averaging 1 hour even though the apps ay 30 minutes.
