SUMMARY: Work is restarting near Shriner’s Boulevard in Harrison County, specifically at the I-10 Woolmarket exit, focusing on roundabouts. The project will involve nightly closures from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. Sunday through Thursday for the next four weeks. These closures are due to the continuation of work that was paused in September due to safety concerns. Concrete barriers have been added to enhance safety. During the closures, drivers will need to use alternative routes, either the Cedar Lake or Cowan-Lorraine exits. The closures will occur each weeknight for the next month.

Starting Sunday, November 17, the Mississippi Department of Transportation will close Exit 41 on I-10 for about four weeks.
