SpaceX just filed plans to build its own road to the Gulf in Louisiana.

The permit application for Vermilion Parish lays out:
• A 15.75-mile heavy-haul road for oversized loads
• A 1.5-mile elevated bridge over Humble Canal
• A 3,500-foot wharf on the Gulf near Freshwater City
• Barge docks tied into the Intracoastal Waterway
It's privately funded. Work would start March 2027 and run through 2032. It still needs state and Army Corps approval.
When your rockets are too big for the highway, you build a new one. 🚀
