LA 1 Highway 1 (LA 1) in southern Lafourche Parish is America’s access
to the vast energy resources in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.
This critical, two-lane highway is the only roadway supporting Port Fourchon – America’s busiest intermodal energy port, the Louisiana Offshore Oil Port (LOOP), and Grand Isle. Combined, these locations service over 16 percent of America’s domestic crude oil production and 4 percent of natural gas production. The highway also supports 20 percent of this nation’s seafood production and eco-tourism destinations like Grand Isle, Louisiana’s only inhabited barrier island.
Completing the LA 1 Improvement Project is critical to preserving safe, long-term access to our nation’s energy supply, abundant seafood production, and vital coastal restoration projects.
