North of Ponchatoula, the remainder of the route would have the benefit of following existing roads through the higher terrain there. The construction of the lakeshore highway was intended to provide a direct land connection between New Orleans and Hammond while taking advantage of the scenic beauty of Lake Pontchartrain and the surrounding swampland. In addition, the man-made embankment required to carry the road would serve as a levee to prevent lake water from inundating the extensive residential development envisioned to line the highway.

of machine-rolling and allowing for sufficient settling of the roadbed, the embankment would be surfaced with shells dredged from the lake. A 3,000-foot (910 m) timber bridge with a steel draw span was constructed across Pass
Manchac, and smaller bridges totaling over 2,600 feet (790 m) spanned the numerous other waterways along the route. This link of the highway was officially opened on April 1, 1927 with a formal dedication following three weeks later. While still under construction, Route 33 was chosen as the official route of US 51 after the U.S. Highway system was implemented in November 1926.

Daily traffic volume in 2013 peaked at 24,500 vehicles in Hammond, decreasing steadily to around 3,000 heading north toward Kentwood. After increasing to 14,700 through Kentwood, the figures dwindled to a low of 2,300 vehicles per day near the Mississippi state line. The posted speed limit is generally 55 mph (90 km/h) in rural areas, reduced to as low as 25 mph (40 km/h) through town. However, the multilane sections through LaPlace and Hammond carry a speed limit of 45 mph (70 km/h).

The lowest figure reported was 4,800 vehicles daily through the sparsely populated swamp at its southern end. The posted speed limit ranges from 25 mph (40 km/h) through the center of both cities to 55 mph (90 km/h) in more rural areas.
