New lanes of I-10 now open to traffic in Harrison and Hancock counties
New lanes are now open on I-10 as the widening project in Harrison and Hancock counties continues to make headway.
Major progress has been made on the project which is widening I-10 from four lanes to six lanes from Diamondhead to County Farm Road in Harrison and Hancock counties.
MDOT is also working on technological upgrades and a multi-use path and noise barrier wall near the Diamondhead exit.
In Diamondhead, crews are working on the multi-use path, driving piling for the final pedestrian bridge.
The work is expected to be completed in 2027.
