ReportWhat the 511LA feed carried over the holiday weekend.
I-10 runs the width of the state, Texas line through Lake Charles, Lafayette, Baton Rouge and New Orleans. I-20 crosses north Louisiana through Shreveport and Monroe. I-49 links Lafayette north through Alexandria to Shreveport. I-12 is the Baton Rouge to Slidell shortcut north of Lake Pontchartrain, and US-90 traces the bayou country along the coast.
When a hurricane approaches the coast, Louisiana runs contraflow on I-10, reversing lanes to move everyone inland, and the whole operation is coordinated by milepost. Outside storm season, dense morning fog on the Atchafalaya Basin Bridge and sudden thunderstorm flooding are the everyday hazards. The basin bridge is roughly 18 miles of elevated causeway with no exits, centered around mile marker 121.
In October 2026, MileCheck's archive of the 511LA feed held 809 unique reports, including 250 closure reports, 18 crash reports and 517 work-zone reports. The routes with the most reports were I-10, US-90 and I-49. Counts reflect what the feed publishes, so a state whose DOT posts only closures shows only closures. Read the October Highway Report.
The map above shows full closures from the 511LA feed as red markers, crashes in orange, and weather and hazard alerts in blue and purple. Closures the DOT has posted for a future date are listed as scheduled, and ramp and lane closures sit under the toggle so the list stays readable. The page checks MileCheck's feed every five minutes. If the feed cannot be reached the page says so instead of showing an empty map. For the official list, open 511LA.
