Louisiana: Ferries & Moveable Bridges

[♕-SlawkA-♕]

As we continue to explore the vibrant state of Louisiana for the upcoming American Truck Simulator DLC, today we’d like to share a closer look at some unique features that make this region truly special - ferries and moveable bridges (drawbridges).

Louisiana’s landscape is defined by its close relationship with water. From winding bayous to broad rivers and coastal inlets, the state’s transport network depends heavily on crossings of all kinds. Our team wanted to capture this distinctive aspect of life on the road, bringing players a more authentic driving experience that reflects Louisiana’s natural and industrial character.

Ferries

Several ferry crossings will be available to drivers in this DLC, including Cameron-Holly Beach, Cote Blanche, and Port Fourchon, where the ferry is the only link to the offshore oil storage facilities. These crossings offer drivers a chance to slow down and take in the scenic beauty of Louisiana’s waterways while providing practical connections across otherwise distant routes. Each ferry has been seamlessly integrated into the road network and features detailed animations for a smooth, immersive transition as you journey across the water.

Moveable Bridges

Louisiana is also home to a variety of drawbridges and locks, which play an important role in both real-world transportation and in our recreation of the state. In places such as Monroe, Houma, and the Old River Lock, you’ll encounter moveable bridge structures that open and close to let boats pass. These features add a dynamic touch to your journey, creating moments where you might have to pause, watch, and enjoy the world around you before continuing your delivery.

And that's it for today! We can’t wait for you to experience these crossings for yourself when the Louisiana DLC arrives in American Truck Simulator. Remember to add the DLC to your Steam Wishlist and don't forget to give our X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Bluesky, and TikTok a follow or subscribe to our newsletter, as you'll receive updates about our games! We look forward to sharing more with you soon.
