The long elevated stretches of I-10 and I-55 around LaPlace are the last place you want to run out of gas. If it happens, book fuel delivery in the Hopper app and get enough to reach a station.
Fill up in LaPlace before you head out over the swamp toward New Orleans or Hammond. There are no stations on the bridges.
The I-10 and I-55 crossings toward Kenner and Manchac are long, with no exits for miles. A quick stop for fuel in LaPlace beats running dry on the bridge.
What to expect
Fuel delivery brings enough fuel to get you to the nearest station when you've run out. Add your vehicle in the app so the driver brings the right fuel, and stay with the car somewhere safe. When you get to a station, fill up fully. Running a tank to empty can also strain the fuel pump.
A tip for LaPlace drivers
The elevated I-10 and I-55 crossings around LaPlace have little room to stop. If your car can keep moving safely, get to the next exit before you pull over.
