I-10 Closure to Impact Football Traffic

BATON ROUGE, La. – Fans planning to attend the LSU vs. Arkansas football game on Friday should be aware that the closure of Interstate 10 between Lafayette and Baton Rouge will cause delays for motorists coming to Tiger Stadium from the west.

The stretch of I-10 between Lafayette and Baton Rouge will remain closed through December 4 due to a fire at a natural gas well near Ramah last week.

Traffic on I-10 between Lafayette and Baton Rouge continues to be diverted to Interstate 49, U.S. 190 at Opelousas and La. 415 at Port Allen.

Motorists are encouraged to plan for delays by leaving for their destination early, be patient behind the wheel and be courteous to other motorists.
