Most vessels that utilize this waterway are commercial vessels, tugs, tow boats and crew boats. There are ship builders all along the bayou and this is their waterway to the Gulf of Mexico. There may be asom private fishing vessels, but most traffic is commercial heavy. These bridges are also taller than other lifts bridges to accomidate the taller vessels.
