SUMMARY: Gautier has received $1.2 million from the Federal Railroad Administration to fund the design of an elevated bridge at the Dolphin Drive CSX Railroad crossing. A 2022 feasibility study recommended this solution to reduce accidents, alleviate traffic, and improve public safety.

With over 30 incidents annually, this improvement will ensure uninterrupted access for residents and responders. Local leaders, including Sen. Roger Wicker and Congressman Mike Ezell, supported the project, which will enhance safety and traffic flow in the community.
