A longer alternative route is to go up Hwy 59 to Luffkin, take 103 then 21 through the Sabine National Forest to Many LA, take 45 to Opelousas, then 190 to Baton rouge where you will rejoin I10. The Sabine County Sheriffs Office said that route is open. This route is significantly shorter than going through Shreveport.

Just arrived in Lake Charles via the southern route. It added about an hour to the travel time. Just a few minutes delay where 82 meets 27 and at the 2 traffic lights in Carlys.
