MDOT warns commuters of upcoming I-55 lane closures over the Pearl River
SUMMARY: Starting the evening of October 15, both directions of I-55 will close two lanes to repair the Pearl River bridges in Jackson, according to the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT). This hydro-demolition project is essential for extending the bridges’ lifespan, affecting over 113,000 daily commuters. MDOT advises drivers to seek alternate routes, such as I-220 and Highways 465, 468, and 25, to avoid delays. Local business owner Christopher Lee expressed concern over increased traffic congestion due to the closures, which could lead to an hour-long delay for regular travelers. The project is expected to conclude by the end of the year.
