Remarks & Notes |
NOPB Avondale run (3001/3002 GP40's) heading home with cars from the UP Avondale Yard.
The Huey P. Long Bridge Widening Project in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana is a four-phase project started April 2006 and scheduled to be complete in 2013.
The Huey P. Long Bridge was opened to traffic in 1935 with a central double rail and narrow 2-lane roads on both sides. This widening project (24' extensions) will add an additional HW travel lane and inside and outside shoulders to each side of the bridge.
