before Interstate 210 eastbound concludes near downtown Lake Charles. In the background is Exit 11, a folded
diamond interchange with U.S. 90 from Interstate 210 west. Photo taken by Chris Patriarca (04/08/03).
|
| Interstate 210 eastbound crosses over Louisiana 3020
at this one-half mile overhead for Exit 12. One lane is allocated for each direction of Interstate 10.

eastbound. Exit 12 is assigned to the westbound return ramp to Interstate 10 for downtown Lake Charles.

westbound split. The other Interstate 210 is 1,671 miles to the west at Pomona, California.

10 motorists is Exit 33 with U.S. 171. This federal route sees its southern terminus in downtown Lake Charles
at nearby U.S. 90. Interstate 210 sees its first interchange with U.S. 90 one half mile to the south.

| The first guide sign of Interstate 210/Exit 34 on Interstate 10 eastbound. Exit 33 for U.S. 171 northbound departs to the right for the towns of DeRidder and Leesville. The federal highway sees its southern terminus in Lake Charles at U.S. 90. Photo taken by Eric Stuve (12/17/02).
|
| No control cities are used for the Interstate 210 westbound exit of Interstate 10 east. The loop allows traffic destined for Cameron and other points south via Louisiana 14 and 27 a bypass of downtown Saint Charles from Interstate 10. Photo taken by Eric Stuve (12/17/02).
|
| Interstate 210 westbound traffic departs Interstate 10 at Exit 34. Traffic continuing eastward sees another 66 miles of freeway before reaching the city of Lafayette. Photo taken by Rich Piehl (12/01).
|
| A second view of the Exit 34 guide sign and interchange on Interstate 10 eastbound. The first westbound exit of Interstate 210 is with U.S. 90/Exit 12. U.S. 90 parallels Interstate 10 between the Texas state line and Lafayette, sharing pavement with Interstate 10 at the state line and at Lake Charles. Photo taken by Eric Stuve (12/17/02).
