The majority of the route travels north–south, connecting the small city of Scott with the twin towns of Sunset and Grand Coteau.

This portion of the route was returned to local control as part of the state highway department's recently adopted Road Transfer program.

Now traveling along Martin Luther King Drive, LA 93 returns to two-lane capacity and makes a sharp turn to the southeast through Grand Coteau.

The highway then parallels the bayou (and the parish line) for about three miles (4.8 km) before reaching its terminus at a T-intersection with LA 31 in Arnaudville.

As of 2018, the portion of LA 93 from US 90 to Dulles Drive is under agreement to be removed from the state highway system and transferred to local control.

[19] Since the 1955 renumbering, most changes to LA 93 have involved the smoothing of various zigzags along the route, a typical feature of the rural farm roads the highway was originally aligned with.

[11][20] At the same time, a short section of highway was constructed in Sunset, reducing the number of right-angle turns heading into town from five to one.

The most significant realignment occurred in Scott, where LA 93 was moved from its original path along St. Mary Street onto Apollo Road.

[5] La DOTD is currently engaged in a program that aims to transfer about 5,000 miles (8,000 km) of state-owned roadways to local governments over the next several years.

[25] Under this plan of "right-sizing" the state highway system, the portion of LA 93 south of US 90 in Scott was deleted as it no longer met a significant interurban travel function.

The entire route runs in a north–south direction along Rue de Belier, from a roundabout with the eastern terminus of LA 342 (Ridge Road), to a point immediately south of Dulles Drive in Scott.

The entirety of LA 93-1 is slated to be retired to local authority in the future, with the northern section undergoing a transition as of 2022.
