A massive 18-month project to overhaul the I-10 interchange at Menge Avenue started Wednesday. Within the first hours of the lane closures, interstate traffic was backed up and stayed that way for hours.
The Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) has rescheduled the temporary closure of all lanes of Interstate 20 westbound/Interstate 55 southbound at State Street in Jackson that was originally scheduled for July 29.
The Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) will close all lanes of I-20 westbound/I-55 southbound at State Street in Jackson Friday night, July 29 at 8 p.m.
MDOT just shut down the same portion of the highway for construction back in May, but they say severe rain and flooding have caused the road failure to continue dipping.
