1:07 if y’all are wondering, it’s pronounced “chop-eh-TOO-las” Also, the bridge used is the last bridge crossing the river, although there are ferries.
Can I please make a suggestion to record and upload a series on the Alaska Highway from Beginning to End sometime soon? It would be a project to film, edit and upload but at the same time it would be a great summertime road trip idea and there’s a bunch of great scenery up in the Canadian Rockies and the Alaskan wilderness.
Where is "mile zero" on the West Bank Exp? I'm referring to those exit number on the CCC. And no I-10 should have never been built through downtown New Orleans like it was..destroying the neighborhood....This was done all over the US.☹
As bad as it is having the interstate over Claiborne Avenue, it was nearly much worse. The Elysian Fields interchange is a high-speed junction, built to serve the never-built Riverfront Expressway. The Riverfront Expressway would have exited at Elysian and traveled down to the river on the ground, become elevated again as it skirted along the river bank, then tied in to the Mississippi River Bridge. Imagine-Cafe du Monde in the shadow of a stacked freeway.
@@macmedic892 correct. The Westbank Expressway, the CCC, and the first mile or so of the Pontchartrain Expressway are all US-90 Business. So mile 0 is at the 90/90B junction at the western end, and the number increases to mile 14+ at the junction of 90 Business and I-10 and US-90/Claiborne Avenue.

Nice ride from New Orleans LA to the Louisiana/Mississippi state line video part 1
Looking forward to part 2
Thanks for sharing. I like the large rail yard at 8:32.

I hadn’t been to Nola since 2018. That was a nice part 1. Looking forward for part 2
Hi. I got to admit that New Orleans is big. I am wondering what 2023 will bring.
Cool!

The odds of that happening are pretty slim. A trip like that would cost $10,000+.
@@504RoadTrips yeah it would require years of planning.

Mile 0 is in Bridge City, where US 90B splits off from US 90.

@@macmedic892 The Riverfront expressway would have been catastrophic for the French Quarter & the neighborhoods to the east.
What's this you say, converting a perfectly good Hockey to only play Basketball😱. Blasphemy I say! 😁✌️
Hockey was never a good idea here. The rink would melt before the end of the first period.

The street is pronounced KAL-ee-ope.
kal-EYE-a-pee is a steam organ on a ship, or one of the muses of Greek mythology.
