Overview

On September 9, 2026, an overturned 18-wheeler caused major traffic disruptions on Interstate 10 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The accident occurred around 4 a.m. between the Dalrymple Drive and Washington Street exits.

The crash led to the complete closure of I-10 West at Dalrymple Drive and the closure of two right lanes on the eastbound side.

At least one person was transported to a hospital in serious condition. Westbound motorists were diverted at South Acadian Thruway, with backups affecting traffic near LSU and downtown Baton Rouge.
