What about crossing bridge and taking LA1 to HWY 70 and cross over river at Sunshine Bridge to get to I10?


Iberville on the west side of the river should be fine. That would probably be your best bet, unless the low spots in Donaldsonville have water. You could also get to HWY 3127 down there to get to New Orleans too if you can't get to I-10 over the Sunshine Bridge.

Any chance I can get to central from Dutchtown area? It's sounding like I can't use highway 30 to get to Bluebonnet?

Can someone give me a link to the Highland and airline traffic cam?

Just drove from NOLA to Plaquemine via sunshine bridge, I-10, and Donaldsonville/Sorrentto exit. No water on the road and low traffic.

That being said, water is supposed to back up onto Hwy 22 in the next 12 hours. I seriously doubt that route will be open later due to back water from the Conway/Panama canals

Awesome, let me know. Buddy of mine was doing boat pickups in BR yesterday, tying to figure out how to get down there.

I'm worried that if Iberville is getting it bad, 30 or 74 may not be passable.

Anyone know if there are Ascension rescue launches happening anywhere on the BR side?

Anyone in the St.Gabriel area right now? I'm looking at google maps and it seems like the traffic is turning dark red. Didn't know if that was actual traffic or flooding.

Most of it was high and dry. Some water on the road going toward southeast middle school. Also water on the roads going toward the elementary school and toward sonic. But that part of the neighborhood was blocked off yesterday so I couldn't tell for sure. Haven't been over there yet today.
