The Sun Herald | 01/24/2006 | MDOT awards contract for Bay of St. Louis bridge

You may have seen that there is a plan to rebuold the Bay ST. Louis Bridge. It is expected to have 2 lanes of traffic by April 2007.
The Sun Herald | 01/24/2006 | MDOT awards contract for Bay of St. Louis bridge: "Granite Archer Western plans to have two lanes of the Bay St. Louis bridge open for travel by April 29, 2007 and the project completed by Nov. 13, 2007"
What you may have missed was the delay for a bridge over Biloxi Bay:
"MDOT had expected to also award a contract Tuesday to rebuild the Biloxi Bay bridge, but that project was put on hold by the Coast Guard, which says MDOT must consider the needs of the shipbuilding industry on the Industrial Seaway. MDOT's design is too short to allow passage of the ships planned for construction."
