Baton Rouge is best avoided. The bridge is a parking lot 7 days a week. At any time of the day or night Baton Rouge can become a parking lot. Until the state makes some real improvements and builds a bridge south of and bypassing downtown Baton Rouge you should avoid the area.
Totally agree! We have found that it is best to go thru the area at lunch time. Still allot of traffic, but it moves. We did make one mistake of going thu on a Saturday and was stuck in college football traffic for an hour!
