WPTNGirl Posted November 7, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2016 We sail next Sunday and Saints have a home game at noon. I see there is also construction on Hwy 90, which we use to get to the port. Will we get into a bad traffic jam if we are planning to be at the port by 10:00 using I-10 to 90? What about coming through the French Quarter and using Tchoupitoulis? Thank for any help.

jgmpuma Posted November 7, 2016 #2 Share Posted November 7, 2016 If you are familiar with the route you described, stay with it. There will be more traffic than usual but you will avoid most of it if you are headed to the port. There are alternate routes but I don't think you would find them any easier. I don't know of any construction on 90. Work is usually done at night, and certainly not on a Saints game day. You can listen for traffic reports on WWL, 870 AM.

WPTNGirl Posted November 7, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Thank you. My husband used to live in New Orleans so we know how to get around the French Quarter to Tchoupitoulis. I didn't know if any of those roads through the French Quarter were closed before the ballgame. This is probably the way we will go to the port just to avoid I-10 and 90. Thanks again.

leen50 Posted November 8, 2016 #4 Share Posted November 8, 2016 We are driving from Biloxi on 12/04 also a game-day @ noon. We are parking at Fulton Garage. Cruising on the Dawn. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ekajun1957 Posted November 9, 2016 #5 Share Posted November 9, 2016 The game traffic will be bad but think of this no worse than a work day with everyone going to work. We go to the games and it is never real bad. So I would stick with the I10 to 90 and also most of game traffic will get off I10 before or at 90 anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Saint Greg Posted November 10, 2016 #6 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I stayed at Hilton Riverside the Sunday of the Saints game two weeks ago...I took the port of nola exit on 90 to get there. Traffic wasn't bad once you got beyond the superdome exit. I don't recall any issues with construction. I arrived around 10am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any advice for route from City Park to Fulton garage possibly around 10:00, Saints game at noon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did it again Sunday 10am before the Saints game. 10 to 90 to tchoupitoulas...no problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
