Airline Highway (US 61)
This was the main highway that connected Baton Rouge and New Orleans and is still an important road today.
It is U.S. Highway 190 from the start of Airline (at the Huey P. Long Bridge) to the Florida Boulevard interchange.
East of Scenic Highway it carries the U.S. Highway 61 badge as well, so it carries both for a while.
Additionally, because it bisects Jefferson Highway, it carries the State Highway 73 name, if briefly, and from Highland Road to Commerce Center, the State Highway 42 name too.
