How about charging them a big friggin toll if they don't take an alternate route? We should be charging truckers a toll to drive thru BR during daylight hours right now.


IF the interstate is federally funded, they can't charge a toll unless they also have free lanes alongside it.

It is amazing how TX can pull this off without issue, but LA is so incompetent that they can’t even get it started


Part of it is competence.

Part of it is corruption.

Part of it is lack of regional unity.

Part of it is we have to deal with the Cost Guard and the Corps a lot more often, because of our geography, which just adds layers of BS.

Ferries are fast and maneuverable


They are but they are not moving in direction with the river traffic. In fact, they are moving direcly across river traffic.

I still don't understand why there isn't a direct interstate from Lafayette to New Orleans along to 90 route. Much of the way is near interstate standards.

Surely this will create miles long backups, yes?

that’s the part of I-49 that never happened - the garbage dumps on 90 in Jeff parish are untouchable
