The City of Biloxi has closed a segment of the eastbound right lane on Pass Road to facilitate essential infrastructure repairs. The closure affects traffic flow between Stennis Drive and the Popp's Ferry Road intersection.
Why it matters
The lane closure is necessary to perform critical maintenance on the thoroughfare, ensuring the structural integrity of the roadway for long-term usage. Drivers in Biloxi should expect minor travel delays due to the restricted lane capacity throughout the duration of the work.
The road closure is active 24 hours a day for a total of 4 weeks. The work zone begins 800 feet east of Stennis Drive and terminates at the Popp's Ferry Road intersection.

Crews have blocked off the eastbound right lane to allow workers to safely complete road repairs along the designated stretch. The lane remains restricted around the clock to expedite the maintenance timeline.
Timeline

Market Landscape
This project follows the pattern set by standard municipal and regional pavement maintenance schedules aimed at extending infrastructure life. By addressing repairs now, the city intends to prevent more extensive roadway degradation and costlier reconstruction in future years.
Commuters traveling eastbound on Pass Road should plan for potential congestion and adjust their travel times during the four-week maintenance period. Residents may experience temporary delays when navigating the intersection at Popp's Ferry Road while crews are on site.
The takeaway
