We need a Loop with a bridge over the river.
We also need to widen I-10 and replace those 60+ year old bridge decks.
Hate to be the one to break this to you. But there is about $8 billion worth of immediate infrastructure needs in Louisiana.

Option A has the simplicity of a sinuous line of arches.
Combine A with the girder ‘skirting’ of option “C” for bonus shade/rain protection on bike/pedestrian path
The pelican motif is a keeper regardless. Reich & Associates founder and progenitor of LSUs Department of Landscape Architecture which ranks
#1 in the Country.

Shouldn't you be busy paying the $10,000 bet you lost?

Whoa, wait up there. Why do we need a bridge? Pile some dirt across there and put a couple of big box culverts and call it a day.
you want to remove the bridge, fill in the lake with dirt, and put in a box culvert?
this is why bringing design ideas to the public is normally a completely worthless endeavor.

Proposed turnaround for the bridge.

C, A, D, B.
B looks fugly.
Are those barriers just cables or is there some kind of wire mesh? I’m surprised the folks who live on the lake haven’t managed to get them to design it with concrete sound barriers.

Those are some pretty nazi-esque looking columns from REICH

C
But will never be built
the existing bridges are pin and hanger bridges. means there is a single fracture critical element in those bridges. They NEED to be replaced. That design is obsolete and not used anymore due to the lack of redundancy.

just making up words to sound like you know what you are talking about. girder skirts? hahaha BUT..... i would like to see an image of the bents of A and the tapered girders of C. It COULD come out too busy but id like to see that option. IMO i like A as it keeps the original lines yet has a modern feel. C is a little to old-fashioned.

Looks like pelicans or an art-deco style tribute to the Weiss designed capitol complex.
Looks good in the prelims.

Not an expert on this. But I can't see how they can build A without closing down the whole bridge.
I think they were doing it in sections and trying to keep the bridge at least partially open the whole time.

That's being addressed. There's a funding stream to dredge and improve the lake.

Which options will be the least offensive to the snowflakes twenty years from now?

Remind me to avoid Baton Rouge until this work is done. Going to be a clusterfrick.
