From Wikipedia:
Interstate 10 (I-10), a major transcontinental Interstate Highway in the Southern United States, runs across the southern part of Louisiana for 274.42 miles (441.64 km) from Texas to Mississippi. It passes through Lake Charles, Lafayette, and Baton Rouge, dips south of Lake Pontchartrain to serve the New Orleans metropolitan area, then crosses Lake Pontchartrain and leaves the state.
On August 29, 2005, the I-10 Twin Span Bridge was severely damaged by Hurricane Katrina, rendering it unusable. Initially, the bridge was repaired through a $30.9 million contract with Boh Brothers Construction Company. Louisiana has since replaced the bridge with two higher elevation spans in 2009 and 2010.
On April 8, 2017, Louisiana DOTD broke ground on the reconstruction of seven miles (11 km) of I-10 between I-49 (exit 103) and the Atchafalaya Basin. A center concrete barrier will be constructed, road repaved, and an extra travel lane will be constructed, making I-10 three lanes in each direction. Construction began May 2017 and will last two years.
There are also calls to remove I-10 from the Claiborne Expressway in New Orleans and rename I-610 to I-10. The entire length of the Pontchartrain Expressway would likely be renamed as I-910 or I-49.
Flyover ramps are currently being built at the I-10 and Loyola Drive Interchange in Kenner. Part of the project is constructing a diverging diamond interchange where both of the roads meet. The project will connect I-10 to the new terminal of Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, and is expected to be completed in 2022 after starting construction in late 2019.
