SUMMARY: The city of Gulfport is working hard to repair piers damaged by Hurricane Zeta, with the process taking longer than expected. The Libby Milner and Fred Urie piers are still damaged, affecting local communities. City leaders are looking to award a contract for a $450,000 dredging project around Kinks Pier, scheduled for completion in April. The city is also focused on hazard mitigation and upgrading piers to withstand future storms. Moses Pier, damaged by Hurricane Zeta in 2020, has been repaired, with expectations for the other three damaged piers to be repaired by 2025.

People will be out fishing and trying to enjoy the beautiful skies this Spring, but fishing piers in Gulfport remain damaged nearly four years after Zeta.
