with the bridge fire/ lane closure on I-10 EB, what is the best route to get to NOLA.
Is Airline open all the way?
Is I-310 open, it appears to be just past the fire site?
Thanks in advance

Idk about any fire or specifics about today, but I used to make that drive weekly and I quickly realized that i10 to the first hwy 61 exit past Gonzales is the best option. Get a few red lights but I've timed both and its basically the same in normal traffic circumstances. Just hop on the Houma high rise and get back on i10 in Kenner (do not try to stay on Airline going through Kenner and Met if you wanna make good time.

ETA: oh wait, maybe I misread, is Airline also closed or something? if that's the case then I have no frickin clue ...maybe a pirogue.

Today I did i10 to 61 to 641/Gramercy Bridge to 3127 back across Luling Bridge. No issues or traffic.

About 1:15 from Prairieville to LGD

I believe Airline is open but DOTD LA511 says to not use Airline because of Ida cleanup. Just trying to make sure Airline is open all the way

I12/I10 to the Causeway or dodge the debris down Airline at Laplace. 310 is open but you have to fight the backup on I10 if you're trying to go south.

Yesterday I got off at Laplace and took Airline past the airport. Got back on around causeway.

Only one lane is closed correct (granted there are only two to begin with)?

Monday I left work(Siegen & Airline) at 4:15 and got home(Kennerbruh) at 6:45 by taking I-12 to Causeway($5 toll sucks).

Tuesday I left work at 7pm and got home at 8pm getting off at the last Laplace exit and getting on 310 , off at Loyola.

Today I have no fricking clue since there's an accident on Airline Hwy by the spillway area and they are picking up debris. Probably stay at work late and let things clear up like last night.
