Route Description
From the south, LA 3154 begins at an intersection with LA 48 (Jefferson Highway) in Harahan. Travelling northward along Hickory Avenue, it heads through downtown until Robert Street. At that point, the northbound traffic shifts east onto Dickory Avenue (which is a divided, four lane neighboring highway that will eventually be extended southward to Jefferson Highway). The southbound traffic makes the shift from Dickory Avenue onto Hickory Avenue further north via Gardner Street.
Continuing northbound, LA 3154 intersects the current western terminus of the Earhart Expressway (LA 3139) at an incomplete interchange. After crossing a series of railroad tracks via an overpass, LA 3154 again becomes Hickory Avenue just before coming to an end at US 61 (Airline Drive) in Metairie.
LA 3154 is an undivided, two lane highway from LA 48 (Jefferson Highway) until the point it shifts onto Dickory Avenue. From that point until its northern terminus at US 61, it is a divided, four lane highway.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
“He hath achieved a maid
That paragons description and wild fame;
One that excels the quirks of blazoning pens.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
