ST. JOHN THE BAPTIST PARISH, La. — All lanes on I-10 are back open after multiple accidents occurred due to the fog down the Bonnet Carré spillway.
According to St. John the Baptist Parish Sheriff Mike Tregre, Saturday morning, just before 11, fog on the elevated stretch of the interstate roadway caused a series of accidents.
The traffic congestion heading Northbound on I-10 stretched as far back as Williams Boulevard, a spokesperson with the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development wrote in a post on Twitter.
Southbound traffic on I-10 was diverted away from the elevated roadway.
There have been no confirmed reports of injuries.
Motorists were seen on traffic cameras, leaving their cars to stand on the roadway.
