Louisiana Highway 5 (LA 5) is a state highway located in DeSoto Parish, Louisiana that runs in a general southwest to northeast direction from U.S. Highway 84 (US 84) in Logansport to the Kansas City Southern Railway (KCS) tracks at Kingston Station. An almost entirely rural route, LA 5 is located between the Texas state line and Interstate 49 (I-49) south of Shreveport in the northwest portion of the state. It begins in Logansport as a north–south route and is bannered accordingly. In Keatchi, its direction and bannering switches to west–east. Shortly afterward, LA 5 intersects US 171 at a point known as Kickapoo, just west of Gloster. ==Route description== From the southwest, LA 5 begins at an intersection with US 84 (Main Street) in Logansport, east of the Texas state line at the Sabine River. It proceeds northward out of town parallel to the Union Pacific Railroad (UP) tracks. After passing through a point known as Funston, LA 5 begins to closely follow the rail line into Longstreet. Here it intersects LA 3015, which heads east to Grand Cane on US 171. Continuing northward along the railroad, LA 5 enters Keatchi. At a four-way intersection, LA 172 heads west to the state line, LA 789 heads north toward Spring Ridge, and LA 5 turns to the east. The route's directional banners reflect the change, reading west–east instead of north–south.〔 After , LA 5 intersects US 171 at a point known as Kickapoo. US 171 heads north through Stonewall to Shreveport and south through Grand Cane to Mansfield. Shortly after this junction, LA 5 passes through Gloster and curves to the southeast briefly before resuming a general eastward course. later, LA 5 reaches Kingston where it intersects LA 175, connecting to I-49 at Exit 186. LA 5 turns north briefly onto LA 175 before proceeding eastward to a point on the Kansas City Southern Railway (KCS) tracks known as Kingston Station where state maintenance ends. The road continues across the tracks as the locally maintained Mt. Zion Road, crossing over I-49 to serve a rural area on the east side of that highway.〔〔〔 LA 5 is an undivided, two-lane highway for its entire length.〔 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 5」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
