Delays continue for Belle Chasse Bridge tolling date

BELLE CHASSE, La. (WGNO) — The tolling date for the Belle Chasse Bridge has been delayed.

Officials with the Belle Chasse Bridge and Tunnel Replacement Project announced that tolling on the bridge will now start on Tuesday, April 22. Tolling was last set to start on Wednesday, April 16.

Bridge officials said the delay is due to signage installation.

Drivers are still being advised to set up a GeauxPass account to get a free, required transponder sticker.

“Using a GeauxPass offers ease of conveyance over the bridge and a reduced toll rate in every category. Drivers who opt not to use a GeauxPass will receive a toll invoice mailed to the address connected to their vehicle registration,” a news release states.

According to bridge officials, Plaquemines Parish residents can qualify for resident toll rates by using a GeauxPass, operating a class 1 vehicle and showing proof of residency through a driver’s license and vehicle registration with a Plaquemines Parish address.
