List of state highways in Louisiana (1050–1099)

The following is a list of state highways in the U.S. state of Louisiana designated in the 1050-1099 range.

Louisiana Highway 1050

Louisiana Highway 1050 (LA 1050) runs 4.97 miles (8.00 km) in a north–south direction from LA 38 west of Kentwood to LA 440 in Tangipahoa. The route's mileposts increase from the northern end contrary to common practice.

LA 1050 heads southeast from LA 38 and intersects LA 1049. After curving due east, LA 1050 crosses over without connecting to I-55. At a T-intersection with LA 1051, the highway turns south and enters the village of Tangipahoa. It continues as Dr. Martin Luther King Drive until reaching its terminus at LA 440 (Center Street). LA 1050 is an undivided two-lane highway for its entire length.

In the pre-1955 state highway system, the majority of LA 1050 was designated as State Route 1056. However, the portion south of LA 1051 was part of pre-1955 Route 33-D and was the original alignment of both Route 33 and US 51 during the 1920s. LA 1050 was created in the 1955 Louisiana Highway renumbering, and its route has remained the same to the present day.

Louisiana Highway 28

Much of LA 28 is a four-lane divided highway with a 65 miles per hour (105 km/h) speed limit. East of Pineville, it is a two lane undivided road to the eastern end at US 84.

Route description

From the west, LA 28 begins at an intersection with US 171, at the north city limits of Leesville in Vernon Parish, running concurrent with LA 8. LA 8 turns northeast about five miles (8.0 km) east of Leesville and is called the Slagle Road. The highway intersects with LA 121 then LA 465 and a few miles after this enters Rapides Parish then Gardner before entering Alexandria. Between Leesville and Alexandria LA 28 is known as the Alexandria Highway. In Alexandria LA 28 is called Coliseum Boulevard. LA 28 intersects with MacArthur Drive where signs direct traffic to merge with north MacArthur Drive and intersect and runs concurrent with Interstate 49. After merging onto MacArthur Drive BR LA 28 exits and follows through downtown Alexandria city streets. This was the original route until December 2007. LA 28 exits and merges with US 167 east at the Casson Street exit in Pineville and becomes a part of the Pineville Expressway, which proceeds west along the Fulton Street Bridge, named for Alexander Fulton, the founder of Alexandria. This bridge links LA 28 over the Red River between Pineville and Alexandria. LA 28 exits at Holloway Prairie Road and continues east. Shortly after intersecting with LA 115, LA 28 enters La Salle Parish. East of Walters, LA 28 enters Catahoula Parish. LA 28 terminates at US 84 between Walters and Archie.

Major intersections

Louisiana, Missouri

Louisiana is a city in Pike County, Missouri, United States. The population was 3,300 at the 2010 census. Louisiana is located in northeast Missouri, on the Mississippi River south of Hannibal.

Louisiana is at the junction of State Route 79 and US 54. The former follows the Mississippi River for most of its length from Hannibal to St. Charles County. The latter enters Louisiana from Illinois via the Champ Clark Bridge, named for a former US Speaker of the House from nearby Bowling Green.

History

The town was founded in 1817 by John Walter Basye and named after his daughter, Louisiana Basye. Other notable early residents were Samuel Caldwell and Joel Shaw, both of whom purchased land from Bayse in 1818. All three properties became the original town plat and comprised mainly riverfront properties. Many of the towns residents trace their ancestry to these town pioneers. Louisiana proved to be a profitable shipping point on the Mississippi River, and that wealth led to numerous substantial antebellum homes. Many of those still remain and, along with the Georgia Street Historic District in downtown Louisiana, are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has noted that the town has "the most intact Victorian Streetscape in the state of Missouri."
