Louisiana Highway 560-1 (LA 560-1) is a member of the LA 560-x collection of four very short state highways in Louisiana that serve Jefferson Parish, particularly the West Bank. LA 560-1 spans 0.17 miles from south to north and is known as Distillery Lane.

[edit] Route description

From the south, LA 560-1 originally began at an intersection LA 18 (4th Street). In 2001, it was truncated north of the tracks of the New Orleans and Gulf Coast Railroad to allow for remote control operation of locomotives servicing the Kinder-Morgan plant. The route is now a dead-end, accessing only gates of the industrial plant on both sides of the road. It continues northward to a terminus at LA 541 (River Road).

LA 560-1 is an undivided, two-lane highway for its entire length.
