The new 190 is a train wreck. I can’t even get to it.

Joke's on you.

A train wreck is exactly what they were going for.

So is the work complete?

I was on it a few months ago staying at the Courtyard when they were putting in the U turns

It looked like a mess.

traffic backs up more?

Maybe that’s why everyone is running the red light

It was fine until they made it where you can’t turn left and you can u-turn anywhere.Nobody seems to care what the sign say yet. Reminded me of driving in Europe

They cannot without the Feds signing off on it. Not that The DOTD wants them to but the FHA is not famous for giving up its primacy.

Command Construction owned by a dipshit fired from BB and his count wife in a DBE contract ploy.

Low bid then late on every road project. Not sure how the DOTD hasnt fined them into bankruptcy yet.

That’s where I come out too by the car wash. The light is now 3 cars long but only if no one has run the red light and clogged the intersection which was everyone. Went from almost getting in 3 wrecks on the way home to at least double. Couple that with trying to get onto 190 N amidst the the i12 backups and I may raise my own insurance rates. But at least I don’t live in BR

Old why the ducking races to open it. They still have months of pacing left.

Typical shitty road work on the west side of parish.

Todd Hornbeck requested that. It's to punish anyone who tries to leave work before 9:00 PM.

It reminds me of Veterans Blvd. Covington is becoming Lil' Metry.

I don't understand how sending everyone right out of Northpark toward the traffic jam getting on the interstate is going to help anything.

At least you get some excitement in return for your trouble in Metairie. In Covington you sit in a traffic jam just to get from T-ball to a kid's birthday party at some Indian cardiologist's house.

What is the law with those U-turns...do you have to wait for green or can you go after coming to a stop on red? I know some U-turns you do not need to wait for a green light but I don't know how that applies to the 190 ones
