Louisiana details: [1]

In NO it began Canal Street and Metairie Road ([2]) but then how to LA 48? In 1891 you had to turn at Labarre Road. --SPUI (T - C - RFC) 09:14, 11 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[3], which appears to be from 1932, includes a description, but is from after the Airline Highway opened and thus doesn't help answer the above question. I'll summarize it anyway:

Originally it followed SR 1 all the way. By 1932 it had been moved to Broad Street, Tulane Avenue, Airline Highway to Prairieville, SR 1 (now LA 73) to Baton Rouge, SR 7 (now US 190?) to west of Krotz Springs, SR 1252 (now US 71) to Lebeau, SR 1 (now US 71) to Alexandria, bridge under construction in 1932 (at Fort Buhlow?) to Pineville, SR 1 (now US 71) to Clarence, SR 10 (now US 71) to Bossier City, SR 4 (now US 80?) to Shreveport, and SR 1 (now US 80) to Texas.

Per the newsgroup posting linked above, the old Jefferson Highway and SR 1 used LA 76, LA 77, and LA 10 between Baton Rouge and Lebeau and LA 6, LA 120, LA 175, and US 171 between Clarence and Shreveport. --NE2 19:37, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Map

Very disappointing that there is no map showing the path of the JH. Un school 01:09, 24 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
