House Resolution No. by Representative Braud urges the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development to conduct a comprehensive study on improving access to Geaux Pass toll passes for the public. The resolution highlights the need for a local Geaux Pass office in Belle Chasse, as the current customer service center is over ninety miles away, creating inconvenience for residents. It also addresses the delays in the implementation of Geaux Pass for the Belle Chasse bridge project and seeks to explore potential improvements in customer service, as well as the integration of Geaux Pass with other tolling systems, including those in neighboring states.

The study will evaluate various aspects, including the feasibility of Geaux Pass toll tags being operable with other states' toll tags, the effectiveness of different toll tag systems across the U.S., and the potential for Geaux Pass to manage all toll facilities in Louisiana for uniformity. Additionally, it will assess the administrative costs, the benefits of establishing a local office in Belle Chasse, and the causes of delays in the Geaux Pass project. The Department of Transportation and Development is required to submit a written report to the House Transportation, Highways and Public Works committee by January 15, 2026, detailing their findings and recommendations.
