Mississippi Roads Get Major Upgrade | Hattiesburg News

Mississippi’s DOT is rolling out major infrastructure upgrades across the western state, pouring millions into road repairs, bridge replacements, and smarter traffic systems to keep travelers safer and journeys smoother. From I-20 bridges over the Big Black River to a full overhaul of U.S. 49 in Yazoo County, these projects are transforming daily commutes and boosting local economies. Upgrades include new signals, lane expansions, and completed replacements like the State Route 12 bridge in Humphreys County — with more underway or planned for the coming years, including key spans on SR 465 and I-55. It’s not just about fixing roads — it’s about making sure every dollar invested delivers real results for everyday Mississippians.
