Louisiana Highway 54 (LA 54) is a state highway located in St. John the Baptist Parish, Louisiana. It runs 2.34 miles (3.77 km) in a north–south direction from LA 44 to U.S. Highway 61 (US 61) in Garyville.

The route connects the community of Garyville with US 61 between New Orleans and Baton Rouge and provides a truck route for the nearby industrial plants along the Mississippi River.

From the south, LA 54 begins at an intersection with LA 44, which runs alongside the east bank levee of the Mississippi River and is commonly known as River Road. It proceeds north, running between the Nalco chemical plant to the west and the residential center of Garyville to the east. Within its short route, LA 54 crosses two railroad lines at grade, the Canadian National Railway (CN) midway along its route and the Kansas City Southern Railway (KCS) near its northern terminus. LA 54 ends at an intersection with US 61 (Airline Highway), which parallels I-10 between New Orleans and Baton Rouge.
