I-10 Now Open Throughout Louisiana, Some State Roads Still Impassable

 
Published February 17, 2021, 430 pm
 
Louisiana State Police have indicated that Interstate 10 throughout the state of Louisiana has been re-opened, but some roadways in the state remain impassable.
 
From Louisiana State Police - Interstate 10 has been re-opened throughout the state of Louisiana. Although some roadways are re-opening a second winter weather system is upon our state. We continue to ask motorists to avoid unnecessary travel. Roadways across Louisiana, especially portions of Central and North Louisiana, remain highly impassable and dangerous for vehicular travel. These are unprecedented times, and we need the communities’ assistance and cooperation.
 
We understand that some motorists are considered essential and must travel. If you fall into this category, please drive slowly, allow extra time to reach your destination, increase following distance, make sure your cell phone is fully charged, and wear your seat belt. If motorists should become stranded, they may utilize the *LSP (*577) system from a cell phone to contact the nearest LSP Troop to request help.
 
For those who don’t have to travel, take this time to stay home and enjoy family.
