Over the next 3.3 miles (5.3km) are junctions with LA410 (Blackwater Road), LA946 (Joor Road), and LA3034 (Sullivan Road). During this stretch, LA408 narrows to an undivided two-lane highway. It continues northeast in this capacity until reaching a junction with LA37/LA64 (Greenwell Springs Road), which parallels the Amite River.[4][15][16]
LA409 heads north on Liberty Road from a T-intersection with LA64 in area within the Central city limits known as Indian Mound. The highway travels about 6.7 miles (10.8km) to the community of Pride, where it curves east onto Pride-Baywood Road then turns north onto Riley Road. North of Pride, LA409 crosses from East Baton Rouge Parish into East Feliciana Parish and proceeds to a junction with LA959 at Blairstown. LA409 is an undivided two-lane highway for its entire length.[4][16][17][18] As of 2018, the portion in East Baton Rouge Parish (except for the portion south of Bethel Church) is under agreement to be removed from the state highway system and transferred to local control.[19]

LA426 heads east from LA73 (Jefferson Highway) in Baton Rouge as an undivided four-lane highway. It intersects LA1068 (Drusilla Lane) just before crossing US61 (Airline Highway), where the roadway widens to include a center turning lane. Shortly before exiting the city limits, LA426 narrows to two lanes at an intersection with Boulevard de Province. The route proceeds eastward and intersects LA3245 (O'Neal Lane) before terminating at US190 (Florida Boulevard) just west of the Amite River.[4][16][42]
LA426 was the original traffic route between Baton Rouge and Denham Springs in the early 20th century. Known as Benton's Ferry Road, it traveled from Jefferson Highway (formerly called Clay Cut Road) to Benton's Ferry on the Amite River near the present location of the US190 crossing. The ferry service was replaced in 1918 by a bridge (which was in turn replaced by an improved bridge crossing in 1933). The highway was designated as part of State Route 7 in 1921, and it became part of the original alignment of US190 in 1926. Both designations were removed from the route in 1942 when an extension of Florida Boulevard from Downtown Baton Rouge to the Amite River was completed. The road remained in the state highway system as State Route 7-D until becoming LA426 in the 1955 Louisiana Highway renumbering.
As of 2018, LA426 is under agreement to be removed from the state highway system and transferred to local control.[43]

The highway engages into a partial cloverleaf interchange with US90 Bus. (Westbank Expressway). Approaching this junction, the westbound carriageway widens to five lanes to accommodate traffic exiting onto the Crescent City Connection into Downtown New Orleans.[12][13][47][49]
Passing through the interchange, the roadway narrows to a divided four-lane highway, and LA428 soon crosses back into Jefferson Parish and enters the city of Gretna, where the local name changes to Burmaster Street. LA428 then turns north onto Franklin Avenue at the northern terminus of LA23 and remains a divided four-lane highway. The highway re-enters the city of New Orleans for a final time, and the local name changes to Nunez Street. LA428 crosses underneath the Crescent City Connection on US90 Bus. and engages into a roundabout with Mardi Gras Boulevard, a local road, at grade level between the two bridge spans. Shortly afterward, LA428 turns to the northeast, and state maintenance ends at the five-point intersection of Lamarque, Vallette, Verret, and Hermosa Streets. Local traffic may travel north on Vallette Street and east onto Newton Street, where state maintenance resumes at an intersection with Behrman Avenue.
