LA: LakePonCswy
« on: October 23, 2018, 07:20:03 pm »
South of the causeway itself, there's a long stretch of at-grade road included, more than anything else in usasf. This stretch is shown on maps as Causeway Boulevard. Should this route be truncated?

Noted as something worth another look in the usala thread. I personally think it needs to be truncated to I-10 at least, if not the intersection with 6th St in Metairie (the first signalized intersection  at the south end of the bridge).

Nothing has changed, if that's what you mean. Doesn't matter to me if we leave it alone, or truncate it to a more logical end point. Other than the OP, no one expressed any opinions. I don't have any intention of holding on to Louisiana after I finish making some adjustments to the non-usala systems that neroute2 suggested, so I'm happy to leave this for whoever takes over the state to figure out.

Who maintains Causeway Blvd?

Who maintains Causeway Blvd?

Don't know. This map showing that it's parish-maintained is all I've been able to find so far, and it's undated and doesn't include some state-maintained roads (like 3046), so I'm not putting much stock in it. I emailed the parish streets department (which linked to that map) for clarification.

To my surprise, I received a response from the parish almost immediately. Between LA 3046 and the actual causeway, it’s a parish road. So I’m inclined to truncate it to the first intersection south of the lake, and to US 190_E on the north end, since north of there it’s not really a causeway anymore (and signed as 190 anyway).

Thoughts?

That makes sense to me.  In regard to usasf, it is definitely not a freeway south of the lake.

Causeway Blvd would be a road that I would like to be in TM in some form, but that goes in the same category as my thoughts about major VA secondary routes for now.

Agree with truncating to the first intersection at the south end. I always assumed it was shown further down due to the Causeway people having jurisdiction, looks like that's a no so there's no reason for it to be there.

North end, sure, might as well lop off the 190 concurrency, don't need it.

Truncated at both ends. All obsolete waypoint names in use should be preserved.
