Grand Isle road closed?

[Dink]

Anyone know of a road closed on the way to G.I.? Heard about it today, but he didn't know what road or exactly where.......pulling a camper and boat, don't want to be on a 2 lane and have to try to turn all That around.......

Only the road /driveway to elmers island . All i know about. call grand isle tourist commission.

I work on the LA1 expansion project between Fourchon and Leeville and we have a subcontractor working on the approach in Fourchon. Its not as closure but may slow you down some. There may be something between Fourchon and GI but its clear up to Fourchon.

[Dink]

I wasn't very clear. He seemed to think it was up toward lockport......I'm hoping its not 308!

It's open now. They had 308 closed to repair a bridge but it reopened 2 weks ago

[toodeep]

308 is till closed. they are fixing bridge by gas plant.

[Dink]

Is that just south of lockport?

[whunter29]

Yes

[toodeep]

between valentine and larose on 308 i think they are waiting on gaurd rails. no one has worked from what it looks in about 2 weeks

[Dink]

Thanks guys

[downsouth]

My bad, I was thinking of the Valentine bridge----sry

[muttmechanic]

I got here from baton rouge taking LA1 the whole way and it was clear ever bit of the way

If your going to GI from Lafayette you can always go through Houma and take the Bourg-Larose hwy. Its not to
complicated but if you need the specifics pm me and I can give you the directions.

Is hwy 3235 a divided 4 lane the whole way from larose to the 1 split? I hate hwy 1 in the little towns. Sorry for all the questions......

yes it is.......the first red light after the Larose bridge on la 1 and it brings you right to it. take a left and you on the back road......stop at Kiefs they have some cool **** in there especially if you like to cook

[whunter29]

Man why were you going threw all the small towns? Cross the Larose bridge take the right hand turn go down two blocks and you are on the truck route to 3235 Besides that LA 1 is just as fast as hwy 308 as long as you don't go threw Matthews between 3:00 pm and 6:00pm on weekdays. Just watch for a rough patch about 1 to two miles down 3235. You need to be in the left hand lane. You will see all the patches on the road and it is super rough in the right lane.

I've always gone on 308..... never looked at a map till today when I heard about the road closure.......I don't know how long that hwy has been there, but I've been wasting ALOT of time!
