Look out for traffic changes on Hwy 39. in Meridian
SUMMARY: A project along Highway 39 in Meridian, Mississippi, involved lane widening, intersection reconfiguring, and opening directional median crossovers to reduce crashes related to crossing and turning at multi-lane highway intersections. The new crossovers provide a safer way for travel to cross the four-lane highway and have been found to significantly reduce the number and severity of conflict points between vehicles. The project, which is near completion, is expected to greatly improve safety along Highway 39. The Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) has indicated that the placement of permanent striping is the final step, which should be completed within the next three weeks.

City of Columbia wraps up water, sewer project
SUMMARY: The city of Columbia recently completed a million-dollar project to upgrade water and sewer services in northern areas. Funded by a $600,000 federal Community Development block grant, the project involved replacing and repairing water and sewer lines, along with adding stormwater inlets on streets such as Conor Mason, Hawkins, Jones, and North Main. The grant covered over half of the costs, with the remainder sourced from city water and sewer fees. The project focused on minor repairs rather than extensive line replacements, utilizing cleaning and camera inspections to identify issues, while also including street repaving.
