Mississippi’s Big Fix for I-20 and I-55 | Jackson News

Mississippi’s busiest highways are getting a $400 million overhaul in “The Big Fix” project, upgrading 36 bridges and 30+ miles of pavement on I-20 and I-55 in Hinds and Rankin counties. Designed to handle modern traffic and vehicle sizes, the work—starting next month and wrapping by late 2028—will include nighttime and weekend construction to minimize disruption, plus two 45-day full interstate closures. Officials say tackling everything at once saves money and time, avoiding decades of piecemeal repairs. Detour routes will be posted closer to closures on the MDOT website.
