It took me about 10+ minutes to finally get to an entrance to I-485, which worked for me, but if you're heading uptown, you'll be way off track.
I guess that they didn't get any/very good signage for directions on Old Dowd road coming out from Rental Car road with the road changes. There is a newer bridge just past the fuel farm that replaces the old routing past the long term lots to access Wilkinson Blvd.
