Bridge officials said the delay is due to signage installation.
Drivers are still being advised to set up a GeauxPass account to get a free, required transponder sticker.
“Using a GeauxPass offers ease of conveyance over the bridge and a reduced toll rate in every category. Drivers who opt not to use a GeauxPass will receive a toll invoice mailed to the address connected to their vehicle registration,” a news release states.
