Interstate 10 (LA to FL)
Alex:
Projects ongoing along the freeway including the six-laning and interchange upgrades in Tallahassee
Work at the Causeway Boulevard interchange in New Orleans
Work to upgrade the eastern terminal interchange with Interstate 95
Widening of Interstate 10 leading east from Interstate 12 in Baton Rouge.
Construction of a new interchange for Florida 23 / Branan Field-Chaffee Expressway in Jacksonville.
Work to replace the Lake Pontchartrain bridges is well underway.
Completed work includes the Interstate 110 interchange work in Pensacola
The new U.S. 190 Business interchange in Slidell.
Did I miss any?
Planned work includes
Building a new interchange at Baldwin County 68 for the Foley Beach Express.
Replacing the Wallace Tunnel with a new high-level bridge (if it ever happens).
Eight-laning of the Mobile Bayway (in conjunction with a new bridge over the Mobile River)
Others?
Work we'd like to see done:
Replacing of the four-lane shoulderless bridge over the Pearl River
Addition of signs for the Perdido River and a MS state line on the eastbound lanes from LA.
Upgrading of the Interstate 65 south end to replace left-hand shoulderless ramps.
Upgrading of the Alabama 59 folded-diamond interchange (the railroad is no longer next to AL-59 and the current interchange has no decel lanes).
Increase of the 55 mph speed limit within Pensacola along the six-lane section.
Any more ideas?

Copy Paste does not always work! It is fixed now.

The I-10 at I-95 project has made a 35 mph curve on I-95 South through there. I remember it from being on a trip to Florida back in December.
Urban Prairie Schooner:
The latest New Orleans master plan calls for elimination of the elevated viaduct portion of I-10 along Claiborne Avenue:

Would be good from the standpoint of the surrounding neighborhood (which is poor and substantially run down), but then where do the cars go? :rolleyes:
And then what happens to the I-10 designation? Presumably rerouted via I-610, with the dangling spur on the east end becoming an I-x10 spur (710, the only number left), and on the west end, extending I-910 along the Pontchartrain Expressway to the existing 10/610 split.
