Heads up, Baton Rouge motorists: I-10 slowdowns start Friday for survey work on widening plan
LINK
Already slow traffic on Interstate 10 in Baton Rouge will get slower starting Friday.
State officials will be doing surveying work in connection with the $350 million proposal to widen I-10 from the Mississippi River bridge to the I-10/12 split.
The slowdowns will resemble traffic during a funeral procession, including traffic blockages by police.

Thank God. 10 and 12 both need to be 6 lanes from BR to their end at the state line past Slidell.

Never stops. Been proven just adding lanes does nothing.
Such a waste of time, people’s sanity and money.

I disagree. Adding lanes instead of bottlenecks is a much better answer.

Except in cases that require capacity enhancements, of which this is a textbook example.

They should've started by building a south loop interstate for I-10 that goes all the way around Baton Rouge 10 lanes wide
