루이지애나 최고의 라이딩 경로

November 27th 2024 It's still open. You don't even have to lift most bikes. You can mostly go around the barriers. Having the road to yourself is absolutely amazing.

I'll be through here on October 4th, 2024. It's still passable if you lift your bike over the barrier. After that you have the road to yourself. Quality is still okay.

The Greenway is one of the best ways to get from Mid-City to Downtown since it is a fully protected route and not in the street. There are a couple of street crossings with crosswalks.

Very easy to cross for cyclists at the moment (late april 2024). The barriers have enough space for pretty much any touring bike to easily fit through. Chef monteur bridge on road 90 is also closed and even easier to cross

As of January 2024, it's still possible to go through the closed section by bicycle. The western barrier is open, but you will have to lift your bicycle over the eastern barrier, which might include removing luggage from your bike of course.

I traveled here on 11/9/23, it does allow “local” traffic. At the blockade it is opened enough for my bike and trailer to get thru. Great to make my journey this way!

This is a cool public dock that you can walk out onto. You'll have to hop off and push your bike, but it's cool to be able to walk out onto the Mississippi River and look up and down the waterway.

The Levee Bike Trail follows the Mississippi River south of Baton Rouge. It sticks close to the banks of the river and doesn't really offer any shade since it is in the open the entire time. The path is completely paved and is more popular for cyclists than runners and walkers.
