Louisiana Highway 78 marker

Louisiana Highway 78 (LA 78) is a state highway located in Pointe Coupee Parish, Louisiana. It runs 7.55 miles (12.15 km) in a north–south direction from a junction with U.S. Highway 190 (US 190) and LA 411 in Livonia to LA 1 in Parlange.

The route connects the town of Livonia with New Roads, the parish seat, and other points along the False River via LA 1. Though it largely serves a north–south function, the signage for LA 78 does not carry directional banners.

From the south, LA 78 begins at an intersection with US 190 (Airline Highway) and LA 411 (Maringouin Road East) in Livonia. US 190 connects to Baton Rouge on the east and Opelousas on the west, while LA 411 heads southward along Bayou Grosse Tete toward Maringouin. LA 78 proceeds to the north, acting as the main north–south thoroughfare of Livonia. After a short distance, it curves to the northeast and continues through a largely residential area. 2.2 miles (3.5 km) later, LA 78 exits Livonia and turns further toward the east into an area known as Frisco.
