Thousands of you sit in traffic every day on I-12 between Baton Rouge and Walker. There was money to widen the interstate between O'Neal Lane and Walker, but now the widening project may be parked in favor of dozens of other projects around the state. As of Monday there were more than 70 projects involving things like parks, museums and civic centers that some lawmakers consider a higher priority.
