List of signed parish roads in Louisiana
Parish Roads in Louisiana include all public roadways that are controlled and maintained by the local government of the parish in which they are located. The existence of a system of parish roads signed as touring routes varies greatly by parish. To most motorists in Louisiana, the only visible parish roads with numerical designations are the few that appear on state-maintained signage at various Interstate Highway exits. This list includes all nine instances where a parish road intersects an Interstate Highway and features MUTCD standard signage installed by the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (La DOTD), the state's highway agency. It also includes several examples of parish roads that are signed by the state due to their proximity to an Interstate Highway or their status as part of an interstate frontage road.
