Louisiana Highway 3052

Louisiana Highway 3052
Location: GrayRaceland
Length: 11.0 mi (17.7 km)
Existed: c. 1962c. 1997

Louisiana Highway 3052 (LA 3052) ran approximately 11.0 miles (17.7 km) in an east–west direction along what is now US 90 from a point west of Gray to a point south of Raceland.[1] Between the early 1960s and late 1990s, LA 3052 was used as a temporary designation for the relocation of US 167 from Opelousas to Lafayette and US 90 from Lafayette to Raceland.[2]

In its final incarnation, LA 3052 began at an interchange with LA 311 at what is now Exit 200 on US 90. It proceeded east through an interchange with LA 24 in Gray and crossed from Terrebonne Parish into Lafourche Parish at an interchange with LA 316. LA 3052 ended at an interchange with US 90 and LA 3198 (now LA 182) south of Raceland. It was a four-lane controlled-access highway for its entire length.

In the early 1960s, construction began on the first project that would eventually relocate US 90 and US 167 onto a new four-lane alignment between Opelousas and Raceland. The new route was built as LA 3052 and became part of US 90 and US 167 as various sections were completed. At the same time, LA 182 was extended to cover the old alignment. The first section between Opelousas and Sunset opened about 1962. Once the highway was extended to Lafayette three years later, it became part of US 167, now upgraded to a freeway as part of I-49. At the same time, the section from Lafayette to Broussard was opened and soon became part of US 90. Between the late 1960s and early 1980s, the relocation of US 90 was extended in stages from Broussard to Morgan City. In 1978, the Raceland bypass was completed. Its extension west to Gray around 1983 remained as LA 3052 for over twenty years until the final section east from Morgan City was opened about 1997.

Louisiana Highway 3089

Louisiana Highway 3089
Location: Donaldsonville
Length: 2.78 mi[3] (4.47 km)
Existed: 1964–present

Louisiana Highway 3089 (LA 3089) runs 2.78 miles (4.47 km) in an east–west direction from the junction of LA 1 and LA 18 in Donaldsonville, Ascension Parish to LA 70 east of town. The route connects Donaldsonville with the Sunshine Bridge across the Mississippi River on LA 70.

From the west, LA 3089 heads east on Albert Street from LA 1 and LA 18 as an undivided two-lane highway with a center turning lane. The route immediately crosses a bridge over Bayou Lafourche and intersects LA 308 on the opposite bank. After curving onto Marchand Drive, LA 3089 intersects LA 945 (St. Patrick Street). Continuing east along the Union Pacific Railroad (UP) tracks, the surroundings abruptly become rural, and the highway widens to a divided four-lane highway. Just after leaving the city limits, LA 3089 ends at a sprawling interchange with LA 70 where all movements are made at grade. LA 70 continues into St. James Parish and across the Sunshine Bridge.

LA 3089 was originally the designation for the Sunshine Bridge and its approaches upon its opening to traffic in 1964.[10][11] At this time, traffic heading east out of Donaldsonville reached the bridge by following LA 18 along the east bank levee of the Mississippi River, turning southeast onto what is now LA 3120, then east onto the present LA 70 across the bridge. Upon reaching the east bank, traffic exited immediately onto ramps leading to LA 44, the east bank River Road. Traffic bound for Sorrento would turn northeast onto a portion of LA 942 that is no longer part of the state highway system and continue straight ahead onto LA 22. The east bank approach was extended directly to LA 22 near Sorrento around 1969.[2][12] By 1975, the west bank approach was re-routed and extended into the center of Donaldsonville.[13] During the late 1970s, LA 70 was extended northeast to LA 3089 from its original terminus at LA 1 in Paincourtville. The LA 70 designation was then extended across the Sunshine Bridge to LA 22, shortening LA 3089 to its present length.[14]

The entire highway is in Ascension Parish.
