Truck Parking Tips for Louisiana

Frequently Asked Questions About Truck Stops in Louisiana
Where should I park before entering New Orleans?
Gonzales on I-10 west and Slidell on I-10/I-12 east are the best staging areas for New Orleans. Truck parking in the New Orleans metro is very limited. Plan to stage 30-45 minutes outside the city.
Are there truck stops on I-10 across the Atchafalaya Basin?
No, there are no truck stops, exits, or services on the 18-mile I-10 Atchafalaya Basin Bridge. The last stops are in Henderson/Breaux Bridge on the west end and Baton Rouge on the east. Fuel up before crossing.
What makes Louisiana truck stops unique?
Many Louisiana truck stops feature Cajun food options not found elsewhere, including boudin, cracklins, and gumbo. Gonzales calls itself the 'Jambalaya Capital of the World.' These local food options make Louisiana stops popular with drivers.
