WEST BATON ROUGE PARISH- The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) announces a traffic switch on the LA 1 Intracoastal Bridge. All northbound traffic on LA 1 is now directed onto the new LA 1 southbound Intracoastal Bridge.
- Motorists heading into Port Allen or I-10 westbound should remain in the left lane and utilize the new Intracoastal Bridge.
- Motorists traveling to I-10 eastbound must remain in the right lane and continue using the existing Intracoastal Bridge.
This traffic configuration will remain in place until phase two of the project, which involves the construction of the new northbound bridge.
