Louisiana Highway 141 (LA 141) is a state highway located in Iberville Parish, Louisiana. It exists in two disconnected sections totaling along Point Clair Road within the city of St. Gabriel. The route travels through a sparsely populated area along the east bank levee of the Mississippi River opposite the town of White Castle. It is located on either side of a sharp bend in the river known as Point Clair, which is bypassed by LA 75. The southern portion of LA 141 serves the Gillis W. Long Center operated by the Louisiana Army National Guard. Historically the facility served as the Carville National Leprosarium and today contains the National Hansen's Disease Museum. LA 141 also served to connect LA 75 with the White Castle Ferry until its permanent closure in June 2013. The southern portion of LA 141 is a small part of the ten-state Great River Road and is included in the system of state-designated Louisiana Scenic Byways.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Great River Road )〕 ==Route description== From the south, LA 141 begins at an intersection with LA 75 in an area within St. Gabriel known as Carville. From this intersection, LA 75 turns north from Point Clair Road onto Martin Luther King Parkway while LA 141 continues straight ahead in a southwest direction along the Mississippi River levee. After passing in front of the Gillis W. Long Center, state maintenance ends, and a private gravel road continues around the bend in the river known as Point Clair. later, state maintenance picks up again at the end of the gravel road. LA 141 proceeds northeast along the river to a second intersection with LA 75, which cuts across the Point Clair bend.〔〔 The route is classified by the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (La DOTD) as a rural local road, except for the portion that connected LA 75 with the White Castle Ferry, which is designated as a rural minor collector.

Long Center; and 1,210 to the overall northern terminus.〔〔 LA 141 is an undivided, two-lane highway for its entire length and has a posted speed limit of between the former ferry landing and the end of state maintenance.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Louisiana Highway 141」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
