The Mississippi Department of Transportation ( MDOT) reports important traffic advisory for all motorists who frequently use I-10, particularly those traveling through Hancock County. Please be advised that there will be anticipated delays in both eastbound and westbound directions on the busy stretch of I-10 at the Diamondhead/Yacht Club Drive, Exit 16. MDOT is currently undertaking significant road paving projects intended to enhance the quality and safety of your driving experience.
The scheduled construction activities will commence on Tuesday, April 1st, beginning promptly at 8:00 a.m., and are expected to wrap up by Thursday, April 3rd, concluding at approximately 4:30 p.m. During this timeframe, drivers should prepare for intermittent lane closures, though these disruptions are expected to be of short duration to minimize inconvenience. However, the timetable for closures may be subject to change due to weather conditions or operational demands.
MDOT urges all drivers to approach this area with heightened awareness and patience. Motorists are also strongly reminded to be aware of the presence of MDOT personnel and other construction workers who will be actively working alongside the road. Your cooperation in maintaining a safe environment for both the workers and fellow drivers is immensely valued.
