The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development announces that all interstate systems in Louisiana are open and travel lanes are clear of debris following Hurricane Ida.
Crews recently completed clearing debris from I-10 and I-55 in the Baton Rouge and Hammond areas. Please keep the travel lanes clear for the response efforts to areas affected by the storm.
DOTD Secretary Shawn D. Wilson says they still urge motorists to keep the interstates clear for emergency responders, as undue traveling could potentially burden emergency services. Wilson also said check with your parish before returning because essentials like food, water and gas can be hard to come by. Many other state roadways remain impacted by the storm and DOTD crews from around the state are working to clear them.
Please check 511la.org before traveling and check with parish officials before returning to impacted areas.
