Talk:Interstate 49 in Louisiana

Article issues and future edits.

 * Hello, I made some improvements that was pretty much chopped up fairly quick. I will be making some more, including relevant I-49 south expansion, and hope there can be some collaboration.


 * I am not particularly looking for battles or a lot of that BRD crap, nor seeking to make hundreds of edits for the edit count, but article improvements. I have lived in this state close to 60 years and have traveled all of the main roads and a vast majority of the smaller ones throughout the state, including hundreds of trips up and down I 49 and US 90. My reasons for concern are edits that are in this article as well as Interstate 49 that are not correct. Some of the information is likely just outdated, some possibly from references that can not be currently correct so are severely dated, and some possibly from editor errors. The original plan was for I 49 to run along the route of US 71 but that did not happen in Louisiana.
 * The following information is from the Route description section that is almost an exact copy of content in Interstate 49 article.
 * Anyone care to see if you can spot some problems?


 * "After leaving Opelousas, I-49 traverses the relatively flat, fertile farmlands until reaching Alexandria. From there, the highway roughly follows the Red River and Louisiana 1, bypassing the historic city of Natchitoches to the west on its way to Shreveport.". Otr500 (talk) 08:37, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
