The House Concurrent Resolution urges the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development to assess the safety conditions at the Washington Street exit on I-10 in Baton Rouge and consider closing the exit. This resolution highlights the significant traffic congestion caused by the exit, which is used by over 102,000 vehicles daily and has been associated with numerous accidents, earning it the nickname "Devil's triangle of interstates." The resolution notes past efforts to address the issues, including a failed attempt to secure a $100 million grant for repairs and the acknowledgment from former Governor John Bel Edwards regarding the unique hazards presented by this exit.

Additionally, the resolution points out that the Washington Street exit is no longer necessary due to the availability of the nearby Terrace Avenue exit, which opened in October 2019 and provides a safer alternative for southbound motorists. The Terrace Avenue exit, costing $9.3 million, allows drivers to access the Washington Street area without navigating through multiple lanes of traffic. By closing the Washington Street exit, the resolution aims to alleviate traffic congestion and enhance safety for the citizens of Louisiana.
