Worst Louisiana Road... Let’s have it

What’s the absolute worst stretch of road in Louisiana that would test any vehicle’s suspension?
Was driving in New Orleans over the weekend meeting some friends at a place I’d not been to and letting GPS take me, and I encountered the absolute worst road I’ve ever traversed near Audubon Park with near 5 foot swells and pot holes that would swallow a small car. UNREAL...I’ve been on some pretty atrocious roads in this state, but that was the worst Ive encountered, and people actually live on it, and it got me to think maybe I’ve not seen the worst.
What’s the worst you’ve seen?

All of them. You can literally feel the difference when crossing into TX on I10

I10 between BR and Laffy.

US 71 between Alexandria and Krotz Springs is pretty bad.

New Orleans.

Somewhere in Lakeview for sure.

LA-463 from Hineston to Pitkin
It's curvy, narrow, pot holes everywhere, steep drops off on both sides with no shoulder and zero lighting
Its awful, especially at night

The section of I-20 from Louisiana Downs heading West just past Independence Stadium is the worst stretch of highway in America.

The financial road JBE is taking us down.....

Agreed on Audubon Park area. There’s more potholes than actual usable road there

I'm sure they got some Federal funding and it went into someone's pockets.

Not even close to I10 between Laffy and Texas.

Even though the source of the money is federal, the states are the ones who actually design and build them. Each state has its own methods to create roads that meet the federal interstate specs. Allegedly, Louisiana resurfaces its highways just as often, but utilizes a thinner road base and has far less suitable soil that shifts and subsides over time.

Any part of Hwy 27 South of Sulphur now the LNG construction is going on...they've tore it up good.

The correct answer is HWY 190 from BR to I-49
If you ever need a tooth pulled, save yourself some $$$ and just drive that road as it will shake all your teeth out of your dome.
