The upgrades to the boat launch, one of the most heavily used access points to the Atchafalaya Basin's swamps and waterways, included expanding the number of boat launches from two to seven and adding new floating piers, making boat launching and retrieval safer.

There will now be a dedicated entrance and exit ramp, creating a one-way traffic flow through the launch. There will also be signage and lights to help guide drivers.

"We have also asked the Iberville Parish Sheriff's Office to help observe the area as drivers adjust to the new pattern," officials said in a Facebook post.

Someone should set up a camera crew and start a YouTube channel.

The FB post already has the locals in an uproar.
Many are saying "we've been doing it the other way for 40 years so we're still gonna do it the old way"

Why swap the flow now? Leaving exit where it was gives boaters ample space to strap boat down. Now you’ll have a line blocking 70 parking spots on busy mornings.

This was my exact thought when I read it as well. I'm with the locals on this one. It will definitely be a cluster.

I fish Lake Erie a fair amount, and many of the landings here are split - some departing and some incoming and I have always found people efficient.

Other places I have launched a boat seem like complete shite shows by comparison.
